I'd like to add effects like trailfocus to kwin. Are extra plugins available like they are for compiz?

Hi,
I see that there is a few here:
https://launchpad.net/~samrog131/+archive/ppa
Look for the packages that start with kwin-effect-*

Another thought is to go to http://kde-look.org/ and search for "effect" under the type of search "kde Improvement".

Compiz can also run in the KDE desktop too... unless you already knew that.:P

Thank you! Those are good links. I know Compiz can run, but I prefer to stick with kwin. It's nice to see there are a few extra plugins. :)
