darcs patch: Generalize X.L.AutoMaster layout modifier
by Ilya Portnov 14 May '11

14 May '11

Hello all. X.L.AutoMaster is my old layout modifier. It was written to work only with Windows. This patch generalizes it, so it can work with any (forall w. Eq w) type. For example, now it may be used to group windows in X.L.Groups. WBR, Ilya Portnov.

xmonad as stacking wm
by sergio 12 May '11

12 May '11

Hello. I'm looking for wm with randr support, which can manage screens (monitors) independently. As I know, xmonad can this, but I hate tiling. So the question is: is it possible to setup xmonad so, that it looked like a tiling wm? I've already tried to to this, but I'm newbie in xmonad. As I understand there are two way to do this: float layer and layout. But looks like it's impossible to do layout things with float layer. For example, how to add window decoration to float window? And with layout I can't understand how to move windows with mouse. (With alt pressed). Is is possible to find some such sample configs? What could you say about bluetile? I've heard that it merged into xmonad, but I haven't find it in darcs. -- sergio.

darcs patch: Compile with ghc7 (and 1 more)
by Mats Rauhala 11 May '11

11 May '11

2 patches for repository http://code.haskell.org/XMonadContrib: Wed May 4 22:24:55 EEST 2011 Mats Rauhala <mats.rauhala(a)gmail.com> * Compile with ghc7 Fri May 6 12:44:31 EEST 2011 Mats Rauhala <mats.rauhala(a)gmail.com> * Aesthetics on Flexiblemanipulate Based on Adam Vogts recommendation on the mailing list. I had to give explicit type signatures to get rid of warnings, but nearly verbatim to his version. ----------- I'm not sure of the darcs etiquette on these kinds of situations. I had already sent the ghc7 patch to the mailing list earlier, and Adam Vogt gave recommendation on flexiblemanipulate. I implemented his suggestion, and darcs recommends/mandates to send both of the patches again. The basic gist of the patches is to stop warnings on ghc7

darcs patch: New layout combinator: LayoutBuilderP, and one more.
by Ilya Portnov 11 May '11

11 May '11

Hello xmonad world. X.L.LayoutBuilderP is a layout combinator similar to X.L.LayoutBuilder (and is based on it). But LayoutBuilder places fixed number of windows into each rectangle. LayoutBuilderP places windows matching given Property (or any other predicate) into one rectangle. darcs could not record my patch because of warnings in X.A.DynamicWorkspaces: XMonad/Actions/DynamicWorkspaces.hs:40:0: Warning: The import of `XMonad.Actions.CopyWindow' is redundant except perhaps to import instances from `XMonad.Actions.CopyWindow' To import instances alone, use: import XMonad.Actions.CopyWindow() XMonad/Actions/DynamicWorkspaces.hs:41:0: Warning: The import of `XMonad.Prompt' is redundant except perhaps to import instances from `XMonad.Prompt' To import instances alone, use: import XMonad.Prompt() <no location info>: Failing due to -Werror. Test failed! So, I removed redudant imports from that module (see the second patch). WBR, Ilya Portnov.

darcs patch: Compile with ghc7
by Mats Rauhala 11 May '11

11 May '11

1 patch for repository http://code.haskell.org/XMonadContrib: Wed May 4 22:24:55 EEST 2011 Mats Rauhala <mats.rauhala(a)gmail.com> * Compile with ghc7 I'm not sure if someone was already working on getting xmonad-contrib to work with ghc7 and I hope I'm not stepping on anyones toes. Until now (at least I) it wasn't possible to record changes with ghc7, because of warnings emitted by the change to ghc7. There were a couple of warnings about -fglasgow-exts, a couple of orphan instances, and a couple of warnings about useless imports (which were there for haddock!). I doubt that this is a perfect solution, and should be checked with a magnifying glass. There were pretty big changes to FlexibleManipulate.hs because the `type Pnt = (Double, Double)` caused orphan instances warning to be emitted. I hope someone would take their time to check the changes with ghc6 so that I didn't break anything with it. Gwen gave me a couple of tips, but there might be something else also.

Keybinding to disable keybindings
by Jan-David Quesel 11 May '11

11 May '11

Hi, is there a way to have a keybinding to disable all keybindings but one, i.e. the one to reenable the others? This would come handy to me for example when using VNC and I want to passthrough some keybindings to the client...

can't load from xsession

my xsession loads gnome stuff -- but doesn't load xmonad. I'm a non-programer type so maybe I'm missing something simple.

How to get decorations to update as window title changes?
by Joseph Garvin 10 May '11

10 May '11

I've setup simple decorations in my xmonad.hs and I can toggle them, which is pretty nice, but I've noticed that I have to toggle the decorations on and off in order to get window titles to update. Firefox for example constantly changes the title of the window to match the website you're currently visiting, and I've setup my terminal to change the window title whenever I switch directories, but xmonad doesn't pick up either of these until I toggle the decorations on and off. Is there a way to have them update as they change? -Joe G.

Issue 451 in xmonad: Problem with popping up gnome menu with a hotkey
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 08 May '11

08 May '11

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 451 by victor.g...(a)gmail.com: Problem with popping up gnome menu with a hotkey http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=451 gnomeRun() from XMonad.Config.Gnome works, but after replacing _GNOME_PANEL_ACTION_RUN_DIALOG to _GNOME_PANEL_ACTION_MAIN_MENU (I want to popu up menu) there is no menu. I'm attaching a trivial program (in C) that pop-ups menu if compiled with -DMAIN_MENU and run-dialog otherwise. I'm spawning that program from xmonad: ("M-<F1>", spawn "/path/to/gnome-popup"). Results: MAIN_MENU version works only if there is a delay before sending X message. Without delay there is no menu. I'm not sure, but maybe it is some bug in xmonad, because I don't understand, why we need this delay, so I'm reporting it here. Attachments: gnome-popup.c 777 bytes
