Issue 378 in xmonad: Clean up WindowBringer interface
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 12 Apr '11

12 Apr '11

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 378 by MathStuf: Clean up WindowBringer interface http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=378 The attached patch adds a bringMenu' function so that the user may specify a command for it as well. In addition, the other functions are cleaned up to use cascade with the default "dmenu" command. I tried doing "darcs record", but I do not have packages that satisfy the testing version dependencies and the xmonad update from cabal has dependency solving issues with the system version.

Issue 406 in xmonad: Add XMonad.Hooks.ToggleHook
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 12 Apr '11

12 Apr '11

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 406 by MathStuf: Add XMonad.Hooks.ToggleHook http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=406 A while ago I sent a patch to the ML with `darcs send`. Opening a bug to track it and changing existing code to use it and reduce duplication (X.H.InsertPosition could also be made to use ToggleHooks). The patches attached are raw patches to add support and also swap X.H.FloatNext to use the ToggleHook calls.

Issue 368 in xmonad: Action to send subkey to a window
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 12 Apr '11

12 Apr '11

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 368 by MathStuf: Action to send subkey to a window http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=368 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. When using subkey for keybindings, it grabs any use of the subkey. 2. I tried using xdotool to send the key, but xmnad grabs this as well. What is the expected output? Send keypress to focused window. What do you see instead? xmonad grabs the simulated keypress. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? 0.9 Fedora 12 x86_64 and i686 Are you using an xmonad.hs? Please attach it and the output of "xmonad --recompile". No output from xmonad --recompile.

Issue 415 in xmonad: xmonad assumes that the shell can find it in $PATH
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 26 Feb '11

26 Feb '11

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 415 by nwfilardo: xmonad assumes that the shell can find it in $PATH http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=415 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Run xmonad by full path, not "xmonad", with xmonad not in $PATH 2. Attempt to restart xmonad; the exec will fail. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? By default, I would expect xmonad to use the paths baked in by Cabal, but perhaps there is reason not to. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? 0.9.1, built from darcs. Debian sid. I'm attaching a first pass of a patch for this, but something seems wrong with it; why do I need to specify Paths_xmonad in the .cabal file? Attachments: cabalpaths.diff 2.8 KB

updating.... in xmobar
by Jacob Alexandersson 04 Feb '11

04 Feb '11

Hey all, I just started trying xmonad out, and I really ilke it. I've used ratpoison in the past but eventually gave it up. xmonad seems to work better for me so far. I realize this is a xmobar question, but I am guessing there are people on this list that uses xmobar also. I have a .xmobarrc which looks like follows: <snip> Config { font = "-*-Fixed-Bold-R-Normal-*-13-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" , bgColor = "black" , fgColor = "grey" , position = TopW L 100 , lowerOnStart = True , commands = [ Run Cpu ["-L","3","-H","50","--normal","green","--high","red"] 10 , Run Memory ["-t","Mem: <usedratio>%"] 10 , Run Swap [] 10 , Run Date "%a %b %_d %l:%M" "date" 10 , Run Com "uname" ["-s","-r"] "blaj" 36000 , Run StdinReader ] , sepChar = "%" , alignSep = "}{" , template = "%StdinReader% }{ %blaj% %cpu% | %memory% * %swap% <fc=#ee9a00>%date%</fc>" } </snip> ...and in ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs I have: <snip> ... xmproc <- spawnPipe "/usr/bin/xmobar /home/jcx/.xmobarrc" ... </snip> All I get is "updating..." where %StdinReader% is placed. Is this correct?? Am I missing something? cheers, Jacob.

Attached is a patch bundle with my previous HCAR.tex patches and also a new patch which simply records the diff of Janis's changes made to the HCAR.tex. I'm not a Latex expert so I'm not entirely sure what they're all about, but they look like small syntax fixes, so nothing controversial. -- gwern http://www.gwern.net

I look forward to > hearing from you. > > Ciao, > Janis. I looked through the main Xmonad repo; I saw no major changes (some very small tweaks and doc changes) since May. In XMC's repo, I only saw rearrangements, tweaks, some revamps by me of XMonad.Util.Run not really worth mentioning, and 2 new modules added. Hence, the sum total of my 'update' is: hunk ./man/HCAR.tex 49 \item XMonad.Actions.DynamicWorkspaceOrder \item XMonad.Actions.WorkspaceNames \item XMonad.Actions.DynamicWorkspaceGroups +\item XMonad.Hooks.Minimize - a hook to handle minimize/restore window manager hints +\item XMonad.Actions.GroupNavigation - allows cycling through; can also keeps track of the + history of focused windows and allows returning to the most recently focused The patch is attached. Unless anyone knows of missing changes worth mentioning, I suggest this be applied and then I can ping Janis to grab the new HCAR.tex from http://code.haskell.org/xmonad/man/HCAR.tex -- gwern http://www.gwern.net/
