[dev] [dwm] [bug] 5.9's first bug: magic float mode

Hi, Actually, this bug goes way back, but I thought I'd be the first to report it, just to ruin dwm's birthday. The culprit is this chunk of code in manage(): if(c->w == c->mon->mw && c->h == c->mon->mh) { // c->isfloating = True; pjh c->x = c->mon->mx;

Re: [dev] dmenu-4.4
