Layout.Hiding: showing hidden in rofi and/or unhiding all
by Ramon Diaz-Uriarte 16 May '21

16 May '21

Hi, Is it possible to have hidden windows (from Layout.Hiding) be shown by rofi (rofi -show window)? I guess the answer is no [1]. In such a case, is it possible to unhide all hidden windows in all workspaces? (Probably not, either). Why this or something similar? Sometimes I have a window that I hide (say, emacs editing a file, unsaved) because something comes up. A while later I might not remember where that was (only "I have emacs somewhere opened editing file whatever"). I am forced to go through all of my workspaces popping the possible hidden windows. Maybe there is something much more sensible I am missing. (Note that using Layout.Minimize, instead of Layout.Hiding, is not really an option, since it interferes with BinarySpacePartition, which I use most of the time). Thanks, [1] That is why they are hidden :-) : "completely removes windows from the window set " from the documentation. -- Ramon Diaz-Uriarte Department of Biochemistry, Lab B-25 Facultad de Medicina Universidad Autónoma de Madrid Arzobispo Morcillo, 4 28029 Madrid Spain Phone: +34-91-497-2412 Email: rdiaz02(a)gmail.com ramon.diaz(a)iib.uam.es https://ligarto.org/rdiaz

Why do we close stdin in (some) spawned processes?
by ivan 12 Jan '21

12 Jan '21

In 'spawn', we close stdin in the child process, whereas in 'safeSpawn' from xmonad-contrib we do not. I'm curious why that's the case? This commit introduced the code that closes stdin, but doesn't describe the motivation for doing so: https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad/commit/353e7cd6811245fbee7c8c6cf821041c924… I suspect we close stdin in 'spawn' because we know it won't be needed, but I'm still not sure what we gain by closing it (does it improve efficiency?). And should we be closing it in 'safeSpawn' as well, or does 'safeSpawn' have a use-case that requires reading from stdin?

gnome xmonad on Ubuntu 18.04 or 20.04
by Steve Quezadas 15 Nov '20

15 Nov '20

Did anyone get xmonad working with gnome 3 on Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver or 20.04 Focal Fossa? Ideally, I want it to work with gnome-panel and Ubuntu Docker and various gnome goodies like power management. I tried adding doing a: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:gekkio/xmonad sudo apt install gnome-session-xmonad But it did not work on brand new installs of Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver or 20.04 Focal Fossa . xmonad works but not within the gnome eco-system. Nothing is in the xmonad wiki either. Has anyone got it to work?

compiling with -O2 optimization
by ivan 22 Sep '20

22 Sep '20

Hi, Is it inadvisable to compile your xmonad.hs with level 2 optimization enabled? I added the following pragma to my config, and haven't had any problems yet: {-# OPTIONS_GHC -O2 #-} I searched issues/commits/google but wasn't able to find any discussion on this -Ivan.

X.A.GridSelect spawnSelected colorized
by Dave Macias 10 Aug '20

10 Aug '20

Hello, Apologies for the repost....i had posted here: https://www.reddit.com/r/xmonad/comments/hvaug9/xagridselect_spawnselected_… but no response for some time now. So I want to try here. Basically, I am trying to custom colorize spawnSelected grid apps. I was able to do this with goToSelected and I really like the color scheme. Was hoping to use the same color scheme that i use for goToSelected applied to spawnSelected. Any input is much appreciated! Stay safe. -Dave
