Option for showing only active task, like Gnome top bar

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi, 

Thank you for that useful task bar. This is not a defect, a kind of enhencement 
request, i couldn' t find the issue type option.

I want to use tint2 like Gnome top bar (just showing active task/window). I 
tried to edit "taskbar.c" and "task.c" files, unfortunately I couldn't make it 
run correctly. Could you give me some information on how to add this kind of 
feature.

And if you think this feature is worth adding to your versions, could you add 
an option like "hide_inactive_tasks = true", so that just one active task can 
appear on tint2, and I can update from your repository.

Thank you again for your great work.

Hi, I'm glad you like tint2.

I'm not sure if this feature will be added to the official version, but in the 
meantime here is a quick patch that seems to do it.

Add taskbar_hide_inactive_tasks = 1 to your tint2rc.
