There's a function awful.client.movetoscreen(c, s), which moves client c to
screen s. I don't have a multi-screen set up to test this with, but my first
attempt would be to add bindings to
function (c)
local nextscreen = c.screen + 1
if nextscreen > screen.count then
nextscreen = 1
end
awful.client.movetoscreen(c, nextscreen)
end
and
function (c)
local prevscreen = c.screen - 1
if prevscreen < 1 then
prevscreen = screen.count
end
awful.client.movetoscreen(c, prevscreen)
end
to clientkeys in your rc.lua. There's probably some one-line way of choosing
the next or previous screen, using %, but it's a bit too early in the morning
here to think about that... (and it would obfuscate the code).
Best,
Matt
