Three column layout
by Kai Grossjohann 24 Jul '07

24 Jul '07

Below, please find a patch that implements a three column layout. Beware that I don't know Haskell at all. It seems to work for me, but I am surprised. Three column layout is similar to the built-in tall layout, except that it has three columns, the left-most of which is the master column. Please do not hesitate to suggest improvements (or to send patches). Thanks, Kai New patches: [Three column layout Kai Grossjohann <kai(a)emptydomain.de>**20070721144654 This layout is similar to tall, but has three columns.

Issue 35 in xmonad: No-mans land to send windows off to
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 23 Jul '07

23 Jul '07

Issue 35: No-mans land to send windows off to http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=35 New issue report by tim.thelion: I have been using xmonad with emacs for quite a while. I have emacs configured so that it opens almost everything in an new frame(window) and I have these windows managed by xmonad. This means that I can close those windows, and still have the emacs buffers in tact. I can switch back to a buffer using emacs' excellent buffer switcher. I would love it if xmonad had a no-mans land like this for non-emacs windows. That way, when firefox was in the way, I could close it, not worying about what was in it. And then use some kind of window switcher to get back to it at a later time(maybe on a different workspace). I don't think this is a terriably high priority feature request. But I think it would make things quite a bit more fluid for this window manager which currently lets unused windows get in the way, or get sent off to some workspace in the middle of no where where they get forgotten about.

[dzen] Basic icons support
by Robert Manea 23 Jul '07

23 Jul '07

Hi, if anyone wants to give icons support in dzen a first try should checkout svn trunk: svn checkout http://dzen.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ dzen The expected syntax to load and display icons is: ^i(icon_location) I created 3 icons for testing purposes, try this out from within dzen's directory: echo "^i(bitmaps/volume.xbm) Volume icon ^i(bitmaps/envelope.xbm) Mail icon ^i(bitmaps/battery.xbm) Battery icon" | ./dzen2 -p You can mix icons and text in any way you like and assign foreground/background colors with ^fg(color) and ^bg(color). Creating and manipulating icons can be easily done with the "bitmap" program. Have fun, Rob.

A few patches
by Michael G.Sloan 22 Jul '07

22 Jul '07

The last 3 are just config tweaks that I think are better. Pure opinion of course. My config is configured more than this, but these are the ones that I think could be candidates for defaulting. The shift cleanup is basically switching the style from using lists as control structures to explicit composition. The Properties.hs patch is probably the most interesting. I'm not entirely sure it is doing what it's supposed to, but the intent is to limit the range of certain random numbers, such that reasonable ranges are tested. I think that at the moment pretty much all the iterations on these particular tests succeed since the number is way out of range. After fixing this for some, all the tests still work :) I'd suggest that someone more familiar with xmonad look over the tests for these situations, though. Hmm, I probably should have added those as long comments to the patches... Sun Jul 22 13:52:25 PDT 2007 Michael G.

Bug Reports: changing X keymaps disrupts xmonad keybindings
by Robert Marlow 22 Jul '07

22 Jul '07

G'day. Just a quick bug report: Changing X keymaps between, say, dvorak and us, using setxkbmap will often (though not always) break xmonad keybindings. I haven't been able to discern any pattern with when it will break the bindings and when it won't. Getting keybingings to work again is as simple as using setxkbmap over and over until the keybindings work again. ie setkbmap will break the bindings, but it will also fix them when they're broken. Another bug report (though one which has probably been noticed by someone else): killing xmonad and restarting it seems to lose management of all windows that are not being managed by workspaces currently visible on any screens.

xmobar-0.7rc1 testers needed
by Andrea Rossato 21 Jul '07

21 Jul '07

Hi, today I added XEvents handling to xmobar, a status bar you should know I'm writing. Now, this is more difficult of what I first thought, since xmobar makes heavy use of Haskell threads. Since we need to call XNextEvent, it seems, as far as I can understand, that this is going to block every other Haskell threads, unless the threaded RTS is used and/or (?) forkOS (which requires anyway the threaded RTS) is used instead of forkIO. While this is working fine on my system, I have a system with an old Xorg build (I cannot compile X11-1.2.2 and X11-extras on that machine), which seem to block all threads no matter what I do. This is not a valuable test for me, so I need testers to confirm or refute my personal test. Here you can grab the source, which now requires x11-extras (I think that 0.2 should go, but I did not check: please let me know if you find out): http://gorgias.mine.nu/xmobar/xmobar-0.7rc1.tar.gz If no tester will show up, well, no problem: no refreshing xmobar will be released....;-) ciao andrea
