darcs patch: add WorkspaceDir, which sets the current directory in ...
by David Roundy 11 Jun '07

This is pretty handy. And it's a resend that's been amend-recorded to eliminate some debug tracing. David Mon Jun 11 08:40:41 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * add WorkspaceDir, which sets the current directory in a workspace. Actually, it sets the current directory in a layout, since there's no way I know of to attach a behavior to a workspace. This means that any terminals (or other programs) pulled up in that workspace (with that layout) will execute in that working directory. Sort of handy, I think.

Hi all, Here's yet another layout-modifier. David Mon Jun 11 08:37:25 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * add WorkspaceDir, which sets the current directory in a workspace.

here's a fix for the problem with Tabbed.hs and BadGC/BadDrawable errors. As I said I'm just learning all this X programming so take it as a bug report! Thanks for your kind attention. ciao andrea Mon Jun 11 13:50:49 CEST 2007 Andrea Rossato <andrea.rossato(a)unibz.it> * we cannot change GContext of decfor with a function that uses the GContext of window created for the tab Tabbed.hs creates errors: xmonad: fatal error: request code=60, error code=13 Error: BadGC (invalid GC parameter) This patch should be a work around for the problem. Still, when XMonad is restarted the messages are still there (correct behaviour?)

Xinerama & switching workspaces
by Dave Harrison 11 Jun '07

11 Jun '07

Hi all, Having finally submitted that last assignment for the semester the time to bail on Ion and embrace xmonad has arrived for me ! :-) First let me say, well done. It works very nicely and I'm very impressed (have been for a while even without using it). So now I come to a question, I have a xinerama setup for my laptop that means I can plug into a monitor and have two screens. My usual usage involves me having to go hunting through workspaces to find where I left a particular client window open (a terminal, web browser window etc). What I'm finding at the moment is that as I move through the workspaces, at some point I select a workspace that's on the other screen to the one I'm working on, and by selecting that workspace I move to that other screen. Then as I continue looking through my workspaces, I pull them to that screen instead (I flick fast ;-) ). So the question is, how do other people solve this problem (ie. how do you cycle workspaces to find something you want in xinerama without getting thrown around between screens) ? And, is there a better way to find something on another workspace ? Cheers Dave

fisheye layouts, anyone?
by dons＠cse.unsw.edu.au 11 Jun '07

11 Jun '07

I wonder if someone wants to hack up a demo `fisheye' layout, http://www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/fisheyemenu/ http://prefuse.org/gallery/fisheyemenu/ Probably would look super nice with compositing (actually shrink the clients not in focus), but oh well. -- Don

darcs patch: first window should be tabbed too
by Andrea Rossato 11 Jun '07

11 Jun '07

Hi! I don't know, but I think that also the first opened window should be tabbed in a tabbed layout. I think... andrea Mon Jun 11 08:38:26 CEST 2007 Andrea Rossato <andrea.rossato(a)unibz.it> * first window should be tabbed too I believe that in a tabbed layout also the first window should be tabbed.
