trying again: Dynamic properties patch

As an attachment this time, apparently gmail mangled the previous attempt(s). This patch somewhat hackily enables matching things such as browser windows where the title isn't set properly until "long" after the window is mapped, because of the way HTML+DOM allows it to be set dynamically by scripts or etc. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b(a)gmail.com ballbery(a)sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net

This means when binding workspaces to keys based on the position in the list, key bindings can change as workspaces are added in removed in a far more destructive way than necessary. Instead, supporting appending and arbitrary insertion allows the user to determine where the new workspace should be added. This patch is a straight generalization of the addHiddenWorkspace' function. Rather than always using `(:)` to insert the new workspace into the list of workspaces, this patches causes it to use an arbitrary list insertion function instead. A few new functions are added to prevent breakage of external code while exported functions are left unchanged. List of new functions: appendWorkspace appendWorkspacePrompt addWorkspaceAt addHiddenWorkspaceAt Existing functions were modified to call their generalized brethren where possible without changing functionality.

At the edge of the screen, however, the spacing is only applied once. This results in uneven amounts of spacing and differently-sized gaps on the screen.

Just checking for a hostname and WM_CLIENT_MACHINE being equal is often not enough because the hostname is a changing subject (without any established notification mechanisms), and thus WM_CLIENT_MACHINE and the hostname can diverge even for a local window. This module solves the problem. As soon as there is a new window created, we check the hostname and WM_CLIENT_MACHINE, and then we cache the result into the XMONAD_REMOTE property. Notice that XMonad itself does not know anything about hostnames, nor does it have any dependency on Network.* modules. For this module it is not a problem: you can provide a mean to get the hostname through your config file (see usage). Or, if you don't like the hassle of handling dynamic hostnames (suppose your hostname never changes), it is also fine: this module will fallback to using environment variables. ] [Add Stoppable layout for power saving Anton Vorontsov <anton(a)enomsg.org>**20140901072141 Ignore-this: a52805d9f3095cd7af48507847ed2fe3 This module implements a special kind of layout modifier, which when applied to a layout, causes xmonad to stop all non-visible processes. In a way, this is a sledge-hammer for applications that drain power. For example, given a web browser on a stoppable workspace, once the workspace is hidden the web browser will be stopped. Note that the stopped application won't be able to communicate with X11 clipboard. For this, the module actually stops applications after a certain delay, giving a chance for a user to complete copy-paste sequence. By default, the delay equals to 15 seconds, it is configurable via 'Stoppable' constructor. The stoppable modifier prepends a mark (by default equals to "Stoppable") to the layout description (alternatively, you can choose your own mark and use it with 'Stoppable' constructor). The stoppable layout (identified by a mark) spans to multiple workspaces, letting you to create groups of stoppable workspaces that only stop processes when none of the workspaces are visible, and conversely, unfreezing all processes even if one of the stoppable workspaces are visible. To stop the process we use signals, which works for most cases. For processes that tinker with signal handling (debuggers), another (Linux-centric) approach may be used.

Re: [xmonad] xmonad with emacs
by Steve Quezadas 17 Apr '15

17 Apr '15

Ok, I found out the conflict that I thought was attributable to xmonad. As a reminder, "control-space" is a keybinding under emacs for the set-mark-command feature which allows a user to select text. For some reason, control-space wasn't working when emacs was under x-monad, but was working when it was using Ubuntu unity. Actually, the conflict over the keybinding happened with ibus. ibus somehow maps control-space and prevents emacs from using that key command. When I disabled ibus, the problem stopped. so it wasn't xmonad's fault. I am putting this on the maillist just in case other people have this problem, they can look it up through keywords or whatever. - Steve PS I really LOVE x-monad. It's so much more efficient with larger monitors. Keep up the good work guys! > Yes; I was looking for what you just told me, that you were using Unity > which presumably loads a keymap.

Re: [xmonad] Two patches related to XMonad.Prompt
by Brent Yorgey 15 Apr '15

OK, I've made some progress figuring out what is going on. In short: the searchPredicate field is never used in XMonad.Prompt! The only place the searchPredicate is used is in XMonad.Prompt.Window, in the definition of the doPrompt function. So this will work if you happen to be using a prompt to pick a window, but not for any other sort of prompt. This actually seems like a bug in XMonad.Prompt. At some point someone added a searchPredicate field to the XPConfig, but forgot to actually use it to filter completion results. Norbert, is this something you could look into? I've looked through XMonad.Prompt briefly but not sure where the right place is for this to go. I'll probably get around to it eventually if no one else does. -Brent On Fri, Apr 3, 2015 at 6:08 PM Brent Yorgey <byorgey(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hmm, I tried it out but can't seem to get it to work.

I've left xmonad-extras alone since ghc < 7.6 makes it an error to hide an identifier that isn't exported, so probably CPP is the way to go.

xmonad with emacs
by Steve Quezadas 14 Apr '15

14 Apr '15

Hello, I am using xmonad and so far I love it! However, there seems to be a keybinding conflict (I think) with emacs. Control-space is the "set-mark-command" option in emacs and it does not seem to work when xmonad is present. The alternative keybind (Control-@) seems to work though. When I take xmonad off, the keybind works again. Not sure what is going on, I checked the FAQ and the maillist history and no one seems to be having this problem which is strange since emacs is a fairly common program My config file is fairly straightforward: import XMonad import XMonad.Config.Gnome main = xmonad gnomeConfig { modMask = mod4Mask -- Use Super instead of Alt -- more changes } I am using Ubuntu 14.04.2 with xmonad version 0.11 Has anyone used xmonad with emacs before? I remapped the meta key to the super key, thinking that this may cause the conflict but it didn't fix it. - Steve

Just checking for a hostname and WM_CLIENT_MACHINE being equal is often not enough because the hostname is a changing subject (without any established notification mechanisms), and thus WM_CLIENT_MACHINE and the hostname can diverge even for a local window. This module solves the problem. As soon as there is a new window created, we check the hostname and WM_CLIENT_MACHINE, and then we cache the result into the XMONAD_REMOTE property. Notice that XMonad itself does not know anything about hostnames, nor does it have any dependency on Network.* modules. For this module it is not a problem: you can provide a mean to get the hostname through your config file (see usage). Or, if you don't like the hassle of handling dynamic hostnames (suppose your hostname never changes), it is also fine: this module will fallback to using environment variables. ] [Add Stoppable layout for power saving Anton Vorontsov <anton(a)enomsg.org>**20140901072141 Ignore-this: a52805d9f3095cd7af48507847ed2fe3 This module implements a special kind of layout modifier, which when applied to a layout, causes xmonad to stop all non-visible processes. In a way, this is a sledge-hammer for applications that drain power. For example, given a web browser on a stoppable workspace, once the workspace is hidden the web browser will be stopped. Note that the stopped application won't be able to communicate with X11 clipboard. For this, the module actually stops applications after a certain delay, giving a chance for a user to complete copy-paste sequence. By default, the delay equals to 15 seconds, it is configurable via 'Stoppable' constructor. The stoppable modifier prepends a mark (by default equals to "Stoppable") to the layout description (alternatively, you can choose your own mark and use it with 'Stoppable' constructor). The stoppable layout (identified by a mark) spans to multiple workspaces, letting you to create groups of stoppable workspaces that only stop processes when none of the workspaces are visible, and conversely, unfreezing all processes even if one of the stoppable workspaces are visible. To stop the process we use signals, which works for most cases. For processes that tinker with signal handling (debuggers), another (Linux-centric) approach may be used.

Message passing between instances
by Chris Bell 07 Apr '15

07 Apr '15

Hi all, I'm currently using multiple boxes in a convoluted extended desktop setup using Synergy. I have a script which, when I start X on the main box, connects via SSH to the secondary boxes and starts X and Xmonad. Then Synergy takes over and I can control all of the desktops from a single kbd/mouse. Overall, it seems to be working surprisingly well. I'm having trouble automating event/action synchronization post-startup. Specifically, I want to quit the Xmonad sessions on the secondary boxes when the primary quits. I have this currently implemented by killing the X server over ssh; an action about as graceful as throwing a brick through a window. Is there a builtin way to pass messages between Xmonad instances? So that, when I exit on the primary, it sends an 'exit' command to the secondaries, which then clean up and close. Preferably, I would like to extend this to synchronize xscreensaver activation, but that's not a major concern. If there isn't a builtin method, can anyone recommend a third-party application/feature which I can use to implement such functionality? I keep persistent SSH connections between the primary and all secondaries, so commands can be passed as necessary. All three boxes are running Xmonad 0.11 on bare metal - no desktop/session manager. Synergy setup and X initializations are done via a custom startx script. Thanks for all your help!
