Issue 348 in xmonad: Encoding task force

Status: New Owner: ---- Labels: Type-Enhancement New issue 348 by SpencerJanssen: Encoding task force http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=348 xmonad is sloppy about strings and encoding. We should go through all of xmonad and make sure all code follows these guidelines: * All String ([Char]) values should be lists of Unicode code points, and should NOT be in UTF-8 or any other encoded form. * All input that creates String values should decoded from bytes in whatever encoding to a lists of code points (this means System.IO and proper locale settings in GHC 6.12, System.IO.UTF8 in older) * All output that takes String values should encode the code points to bytes in whatever encoding (again System.IO in 6.12, utf8-string otherwise) * All non-string data (lists of bytes, encoded strings, etc.) should be stored at types other than [Char] If anybody wants to spearhead this, feel free to come forward. Alternatively we could have maintainers self-certify their modules? -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Issue 531 in xmonad: Multiple workspaces with the same name confuses XMonad
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 14 Jul '14

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 531 by erdnussb...(a)gmail.com: Multiple workspaces with the same name confuses XMonad http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=531 What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I expect that xmonad differs between workspaces even if they have the same name. The following describes the scenarios you run into when naming multiple workspaces identically. ------------------- Scenario 1: ------------------- How to produce: 1. Give some workspaces the same name. 2. Restart and recompile XMonad. What happens: The renamed workspaces are added uselessly to the beginng of the list. (see picture 1.png) ------------------- Scenario 2: ------------------- How to produce: 1. Start from scenario 1. 2. Restart X. What happens: XMonad shows all the workspaces separately but addresses them as one (see picture 2.png). Additional information: If you switch between two workspaces with the same name, xmonad loads the content again (you see it flicker) but the content is the same. ------------------- Scenario 3a: ------------------- How to produce: 1. Start from scenario 2. 2. Change one of the former identical workspace names to something unique. 3. Recompile and restart XMonad. What happens: XMonad displays mutliple times the unique name?! (see picture 3a.png) Additional information: From this point on, recompiling and restarting doesn't fix the corruption of the running XMonad session. ------------------- Scenario 3b: ------------------- How to produce: 1. Start from Scenario 3a 2. Restart X What happens: The multiple workspaces are shown again, still addresses as one, but the uniquely named workspace is displayed and addressed correctly. (see picture 3b.png) ------------------- Scenario 3c: ------------------- How to produce: 1. Start from Scenario 3b. 2. Change all workspace names to something unique again. 3. Recompile and Restart Xmonad. What happens: The doesn't have the intended effect, instead some workspace keys stop working and a random one is shown mutliple times. (see picture 3c.png) Restarting X fixes this issue. 4. Start with Scenario 1 again, it's fun (: ------------------- What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? Linux ******* 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.35-2 x86_64 GNU/Linux (wheezy) xmonad 0.10 ------------------- Are you using an xmonad.hs? Please attach it and the output of "xmonad --recompile". Yes I'm using it, there are no compilation errors. ------------------- Please provide any additional information below. Dzen2 and Xmobar showed the same effects.

Multiple statusbars
by Alexis de BRUYN 13 Jun '14

13 Jun '14

Hi Everybody, I am looking for a way to have two statusbars (xmobar or dzen), one at the top and the other one at the bottom of the screen, which could be always visible. I have tried some configs on the Xmonad/Config_archive and other from other sites, but actually I don't how to launch and set the second bar to be not hidden by the windows. Thanks for your help, Alexis. -- Alexis de BRUYN

[xmobar] XBM icons for layout indicators
by Ruslan Kiianchuk 08 Jun '14

08 Jun '14

Hello, community. Can someone point me into the right direction on how to set up XMonad + XMobar to show XBM icons instead layout names? My current XMonad configuration <https://github.com/zoresvit/dotfiles/tree/master/xmonad>. *PS:* I'm not a Haskell programmer, know only basics for simple XMonad configuration. Perhaps that's the reason I couldn't Google it and get the desired result. Thanks for any help! -- Sincerely, Ruslan Kiianchuk.

Issue 574 in xmonad: Applications stop receiving keyboard events if I type Greek letters in the shell prompt
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 06 Jun '14

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 574 by anakreon...(a)gmail.com: Applications stop receiving keyboard events if I type Greek letters in the shell prompt http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=574 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Switch to Greek keyboard 2. Launch sell prompt (modm F3) 3. Type any letter in the prompt The typed letter does not appear in the prompt. Some times Esc works and focus returns in an opened X window but the prompt remains visible until I restart the X session. Other times the behaviour is worse. Opened applications do not receive keyboard input at all. I can use the mouse and paste selected text though. Also I can switch to another desktop (modm 1-9). It seems that only letter keys are disabled. I have attached my XMonad configuration file.
