Issue 34 in xmonad: focusedBorderColor does not follow focus that is requested by application
by codesite-noreply＠google.com 13 Jul '07

Issue 34: focusedBorderColor does not follow focus that is requested by application http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=34 Comment #1 by JinXiaoyong: I did a bit research tonight and I think it might not be possible for window manager to detect that kind of events. It worked for me when I use fvwm, because I let the mouse move along with the focus so that the crossing event is always detected. It seems I can't close this bug report here. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.

Patch: unbreak Magnifier
by Peter De Wachter 13 Jul '07

This patch unbreaks Magnifier, which was broken since the move to LayoutHelpers. I do remember sending this before, but it must have been eaten somewhere along the way.

xmobar-0.6 "The Existentialist" released!
by Andrea Rossato 13 Jul '07

13 Jul '07

Hi! I've just released xmobar-0.6 "The Existentialist", my status bar for XMonad. Grab the source here: http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/xmobar-0.6 Screen shot: http://gorgias.mine.nu/xmobar/xmobar-0.6.png If you cannot wait for ghc to do his job, here you can find a binary with 2 sample configuration files: http://gorgias.mine.nu/xmobar/ About this release: 1. Plugin support. I've already sent a mail regarding the way through which I decided to add plugin support,[1] so I'm not giving details here. There is an example within the distribution: Plugins/HelloWorld.hs See below (or the README) for instruction on how to install it. The precompiled binary linked above was compiled with it. In the README there are instructions on how to write plugins (should be very easy, I hope at least); 2. new way of configuring commands (resulting from the above change): I hope that makes it easier to configure XMobar: no more tuples but a single command prefixed by "Run". See the configuration samples and instruction in the README; 3. colors are off by default now, and you need to configure them explicitly. See the config sample or the README to find out how. 4. Performance: I did quite some profiling. The most resource consuming part was the network monitor. So I rewrote it. Now XMobar should be quite optimized. Test and report back please. There's room for more optimization I think, but the results so far seem good to me. Hope you'll enjoy. All the best, Andrea [1] My previous mail about existential plugin-ing: http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/xmonad/2007-July/001413.html To install the HelloWorld plugin: 1. import the plugin module in Config.hs, by adding: import Plugins.HelloWorld 2. add the plugin data type to the list of data types in the type signature of "runnableTypes" in Config.hs. For instance, for the HelloWorld plugin, change "runnableTypes" into: runnableTypes :: (Command,(HelloWorld,())) runnableTypes = undefined 3. Rebuild and reinstall XMobar. Now test it with: xmobar Plugins/helloworld.config As you may see in the example configuration file, the plugin can be used by adding, in the "commands" list: Run HelloWorld and, in the output template, the alias of the plugin: %helloWorld% That's it.

xmonad crashing
by Geoffrey Alan Washburn 12 Jul '07

12 Jul '07

After pulling in a few recent patches I've been having problems with xmonad crashing when I close windows from Thunderbird. I haven't extensively tested whether there are other applications that this happens with. xmonad dies with the following information. I'm compiling with ghc 6.6 on Linux. Let me know if there is some additional information that I can provide.

by Andrea Rossato 12 Jul '07

12 Jul '07

Hi, this patch soft of fixes the crash issue. It removes the work aroung I proposed for non latin window's names: using the reasourse name provided by getClassHint. This one is causing the problem. So, we need to fix this first. To XMonad core team: I don't know if this patch must be applied: probably it can be used by Tabbed users till when getClassHint is fixed. I don't know... you see! Ciao Andrea who's going to have some breackfast now Thu Jul 12 07:47:52 CEST 2007 Andrea Rossato <andrea.rossato(a)unibz.it> * NamedWindows: removed getClassHint that is the cause of some crashing My work around for non latin string in WindowNames requires getClassHint that is, so far, buggy. For the time being we will not have non latin names in tabs. But at least the Tabbed layout is not going to crash XMonad.

turn any window into a statusbar or manage/unmage windows 'remotely'
by Robert Manea 11 Jul '07

11 Jul '07

Hi, as the question: 'How can I make xmonad ignore application "foo" and have it appear on every workspace?' is kind of a FAQ in xmonad's IRC channel, i wrote a tiny application just for this purpose. Source is attached below, usage is trivial: - retreive the window ID of the application you want to unmanage/manage with 'xwininfo' - invoke the program below, like: * unmanage <windowid> * manage <windowid> Compilation und usage instructions are in the code.. Have fun, Rob.
