darcs patch: implement Spencer's decoration suggestion. (and 1 more)
by David Roundy 10 Jun '07

10 Jun '07

Hi all, Here's a couple of patches implementing Spencer's suggestion for dealing with window decorations. Other patches will be coming to XMonadContrib to actually make use of this (and demonstrate its sufficiency). I haven't actualy tested it yet with anything beyond the creation of decorations. But will appreciate feedback. David Sat Jun 9 18:22:37 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * implement Spencer's decoration suggestion. Sat Jun 9 18:35:31 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * send message when "windows" is called.

Hi all, Here's a complete set of patches to enable my tabbed layout (which this time I really am about to send). David Sat Jun 9 18:22:37 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * implement Spencer's decoration suggestion. Sat Jun 9 18:35:31 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * send message when "windows" is called. Sun Jun 10 08:35:53 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * accept unmodified clicks. I believe this restores the previous behavior where clicking on an unfocussed window brings it into focus (e.g. when switching workspaces, so your mouse is over an unfocussed window). It also is necesary for tabbed workspaces to function properly. Sun Jun 10 08:38:36 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * a few modifications to event-sending to make Tabbed layout work.

darcs patch: color focussed tab differently.
by David Roundy 10 Jun '07

10 Jun '07

This colors the focussed tab a bit brighter than the others. Makes the tabbed layout far more useful. David Sun Jun 10 12:57:43 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * color focussed tab differently.

darcs patch: new layout algorithm for Mosaic. (and 6 more)
by David Roundy 10 Jun '07

10 Jun '07

This is a bunch of modifications to Mosaic. It's not necesarily a net improvement, but it's where my development is at the moment (and is needed for Mosaic to compile at the moment). David Sun May 27 12:11:53 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * new layout algorithm for Mosaic. Fri Jun 1 10:05:05 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * start switching over to a Monte Carlo algorithm for Mosaic Sat Jun 9 06:14:56 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * cut obsolete description of mosaic. Fri Jun 1 10:50:42 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * improve changeMosaic. Fri Jun 1 11:31:47 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * fix error in select. Fri Jun 1 11:32:40 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * maximize rather than minimize the rating. Sun Jun 10 07:58:16 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * update Mosaic for latest changes.

darcs patch: add sketch of tabbed layout. (and 3 more)
by David Roundy 10 Jun '07

10 Jun '07

I now display window names in the tabs (which are still hideous). Still needs work to get expose events. David Sun Jun 10 08:39:26 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * add sketch of tabbed layout. Sun Jun 10 08:39:39 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * add Decoration module to be used to easily define decorations. Sun Jun 10 09:36:51 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * make Decoration draw the window initially. We still don't respond to expose events. :( Sun Jun 10 09:37:29 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * display names of windows on tabs.

darcs patch: make LayoutHints work with new modifyLay... (and 2 more)
by David Roundy 10 Jun '07

10 Jun '07

Hi all, Here are the patches introducing two new contrib modules: Decoration and Tabbed. Tabbed is a simple tabbed layout. It views one window at a time, and has tabs that you can click on to get to other windows. The tabs aren't visible unless there's more than one window in the workspace. Currently the tabs are a hideous color, and are completely unlabelled. But still, in my opinion it's often a slight improvement over full-screen mode. You have almost the same viewable space, but you also have the benefit of a visual reminder of how many windows are open. You also have O(1) access to windows, if you can remember where their tabs are (vs. the O(N) access that is all you get with the full layout. Decoration is almost self-explanatory. It exports one function, which creates a new "decoration" window and associates with it a response to mouse clicks and redraw requests. Except that the redraw stuff (expose events) isn't working yet. Decoration keeps track of when to destroy the window, so layouts can just fire and forget. It's a little hokily implemented, but seems to work fine. David Sun Jun 10 07:57:40 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * make LayoutHints work with new modifyLayout (in X). Sun Jun 10 08:39:26 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * add sketch of tabbed layout. Sun Jun 10 08:39:39 PDT 2007 David Roundy <droundy(a)darcs.net> * add Decoration module to be used to easily define decorations.

haddock...ing the source code
by Andrea Rossato 10 Jun '07

10 Jun '07

Hi, so, I started working on adding full haddock support to the XMonad source code, but it seems that haddock itself must be patched first, since it does not deal with "deriving" from parametrized types, such as the type X: deriving (Functor, Monad, MonadIO, MonadState XState, MonadReader Xconf)) A small change in the code of the haddock parser solves the problem, but still haddock does not handle "deriving" very well and I do not think that using a preprocessor is an option.[1] Here you can see what I can get with a patched haddock: http://gorgias.mine.nu/xmonad/XMonad.html What do you think? Shall we forget about it? Is it useful to have a "patched-haddock" support? Ciao andrea [1] http://haskell.org/haddock/haddock-html-0.8/deriving.html
