[dev] [dwm] Starting new windows in the CWD of the selected window

[Stephen Paul Weber]

I realise this might not be possible in general. Really I'm mostly interested in starting new st processes in the CWD of a currently-selected st.

I think my approach should be something like:


Walk the process tree down from that PID to the most recent leaf child
Get the CWD of that child

Read _NET_WM_PID for selmon->sel->win (this is giving me some trouble, actually, but I can probably figure it out) The process tree walking is because in a terminal the shell changing directory does not change the CWD of the terminal itself. Has anyone else done work on this kind of functionality? Any tips? Am I going about this all wrong?
