Re: [xmonad] contrib darcs patch: BinarySpacePartition update

Yes, I applied it and sent a message to the list, but it seems mail.haskell.org is having some trouble -- it (not mailman) rejected my message, and according to infrastructure@, several others are having the same problem. ~d On Thu, May 28, 2015 at 2:39 PM, Brent Yorgey wrote:

Hi,

this patch makes the actions in BSP layout more consistent and usable, making Equalize and Balance work locally and also allowing to open new windows at arbitrary positions:

Equalize/Balance now only rearrange the currently focused node instead of the whole layout (e.g. you want to keep some windows like they are but only want to rearrange a deeply nested branch).

New windows now are inserted into the currently selected node, so e.g focussing the root (everything) and opening the window will make the new window take half of the screen (not possible or very cumbersome before).

Also a new feature is added - now it is possible to select a window or group of windows (first FocusParent, then SelectNode) and "cut&paste" the selected window(s) into some other location in the layout (again, FocusParent to the destination, then MoveNode). This will split the node focused and put the selected window(s) there.

The reason for this was that more elaborate rearrangements that I sometimes wished for were simply not possible just with regular window swapping.
