Well, actually, we didn't really do anything except write a function, write a patch, and  then agree not to use that function tongue

It's 3:38 AM and I'm tired out of my mind, so I'm going to finally sleep. Night wink

The force kill didn't really have much of a use, but the kill_client() works great. It now allows a single child window to be closed without disturbing the parent.

Re: catwm, Cute and Tiny Window Manager

I don't know if some people are interested, but it can be a great idea to switch to xcb no? Plus, there is not a lot of code for the moment, so the port will be more easier...

What do you mean by "too lightweight"? Seems to be pretty much complete... For example look at awesome, it's done with xcb

The Public API, for example, has only 16 functions (not including the other APIs). Xlib has all of these: http://tronche.com/gui/x/xlib/function-index.html

moving a window up works just fine, but it doesn't seem to recognize the move down. For example, if current is a terminal it just prints "J" when i push shift+alt+j but it should move the window down. Does anyone of you see were the problem is?

EDIT:
ignore the "it doesn't work stuff" actually it works. The problem was, that gcc didn't compile catwm again, because i only changed the config.h in the last try and gcc thought, that nothing changed and so there's nothing to compile. So in short: it works

EDIT EDIT:
DON'T USE THIS VERSION. there's a better one a few posts below

Re: catwm, Cute and Tiny Window Manager

Bug report: Attempting to move a window down when there is nothing below it causes the wm to crash.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Go to empty desktop
2) Open a single program (a terminal emulator for example)
3) Hit Mod+Shift+j and watch X die wink

I'll see if there is a fix for this.

Re: catwm, Cute and Tiny Window Manager

Yay! My first bugfix! smile I'll post a patch ASAP. The problem was with the head->win. Trying to move it up/down caused an error.

EDIT:

!     if(current == NULL || current->prev == head || current->win == head->win) {
          return;
      }
      swap(current->prev, current);

EDIT EDIT: Fixed patch

Oh and about the whole XCB switch thing, I was thinking about it, and it seemed like too much work to be worth-while (pardon my laziness). It may make catwm a bit faster, but as it is, I don't any need for a speed improvement. Also, XCB would be just another dependency of catwm.

Re: catwm, Cute and Tiny Window Manager

Great project.
Just a suggestion-- you may want to go back and edit the first post to give a more complete and informational introduction to catwm, to draw more attention and interest. smile
