Hi All,
I've applied the 'swallow' patch : https://dwm.suckless.org/patches/swallow/,
which allows a terminal to 'swallow' a window opened by a child process in the
terminal, eg. xlock.
Can someone assist me in applying the dwm rules to this 'swallowed' window?
For example, if I have a rule setup for xclock to appear on tag6 on my second
monitor:
/* class instance title tags mask isfloating isterminal noswallow monitor */
{ "XClock", NULL, NULL, 1 << 5, 1, 0, 0, 1 },
When xclock is launched via dmenu, it appears on the correct tag and monitor.
However, if I launch xlcock from a terminal, it is correctly swallowed by the
terminal, but it does not get moved to the correct tag and monitor.
I've tried adding applyrules(p) to the swallow function - it's close - but the
window ends up borked, and no longer plays nice in the stack.
Can any one offer suggestions on what I'm doing wrong?
void
swallow(Client *p, Client *c)
{
if (c->noswallow || c->isterminal)
return;
detach(c);
detachstack(c);
setclientstate(c, WithdrawnState);
XUnmapWindow(dpy, p->win);
p->swallowing = c;
c->mon = p->mon;
Window w = p->win;
p->win = c->win;
c->win = w;
updatetitle(p);
+ applyrules(p);
arrange(p->mon);
XMoveResizeWindow(dpy, p->win, p->x, p->y, p->w, p->h);
configure(p);
updateclientlist();
}
Cheers,
Ilias
