[PATCH - parser] (4) updates
A couple of patches for the parser branch: 0001: Some cleanup. 0002: The randr simulation patch from the other message. 0003: Fix function depth handling and an uninitialised function argument.

[RFC] Fake a global monitor when RandR is not available.
For debugging I need to run another fvwm in xnest, but that doesn't support randr. The attached patch mocks up a global monitor to use if init fails. It works at the first glance, but the patch is not very clean. Please comment.

I mean regarding parsing. If filters are universal, they shouldn't be part of the command syntax, and the parser needs to figure out which arguments are filters and which belong to the command, e.g. by a rule that filter arguments must always be placed before other arguments on the command line.

I'm still mulling over what I mean by source vs target, but source refers to the window or windows which the command needs to operate on, and target is the end result of that command. Take the `Move` command, for instance: Move -s -t screen|desktop|page But I think that's overcomplicating things. What matters is whether the command expects a window, or if it's a command which changes state (such as a colorset, or a setting for something). I think you're right though, Dominik, we need to pull this into a .md file and start fleshing it out (similar to how we did the BNF work), if you're happy for that? > For multi-target conditions the syntax would work too. > > Old way, loop over all windows, filter them by a resource name, > then apply a command to them: > > All (xterm) Close > > Same in new syntax (assuming "-c" marks the beginning of the > command to execute): > > All --match-resource "xterm" -c Close Something like that, yes. Although I'm suggesting that filters would allow for us doing away with commands such as: All, None, Next, Prev, as they'd become a part of the filter. So you might say: Close --filter "screen:X,desk:*,class:XTerm,condition:*" ... to close all XTerm windows (condition:*), which were only on screen X, all desks (desk:*). Either way would work though. > Taking it a step further filters can be applied to *any* command > line, not just commands: > > foobarfunc --match-resource "xterm" > > (Problem: How can we distinguish between general filters and the > actual command/function arguments?)

Yeah -- this needs more thinking. Hmm. Kindly, Thomas

While implementing new ways of selecting source/target (what is the difference?) it is still possible to keep the existing conditionals working: If "-s ..." is present, use it. Otherwise use the window that has been selected by a conditional. If that's not defined either, ask the user to select one. For multi-target conditions the syntax would work too. Old way, loop over all windows, filter them by a resource name, then apply a command to them: All (xterm) Close Same in new syntax (assuming "-c" marks the beginning of the command to execute): All --match-resource "xterm" -c Close Hypothetical filtering by the command itself. Call the command for each window in turn, but the command does nothing unless the --match-resource condition is true. All -c Close --match-resource "xterm" Command that works only on matching windows: Close --match-resource "xterm" etc. "All" would then work like a prefix (a la "silent", "keeprc" etc.). -- Taking it a step further filters can be applied to *any* command line, not just commands: foobarfunc --match-resource "xterm" (Problem: How can we distinguish between general filters and the actual command/function arguments?) Note: Complex functions already have a kind of filtering with the "I", "C", ... bits. Ciao Dominik ^_^ ^_^ -- Dominik Vogt

We used to have something like that but it fell into bitrot and I removed it years ago. That being said, it's probably more valuable to have a set of tests which capture the behaviour of the parser, than it is about checking window positions, etc. > Could you try to assemble a list of parsing test cases from past > bug reports?

Indeed -- and I understood that. My point was to try and pre-enumerate this along with the window which is required to run the action. That works fine for individual commands but each item in a function could be working on a different context entirely. I think what I'm trying to convey here is two different things which I shouldn't conflate. > The biggest problem I see is that the parsed information needs to > be passed to the commands.

We have several >commands that have different modes of operation; for example >"Move" takes certain arguments in interactive mode, some >arguments indicate noninteractive mode, and some arguments are >shared. I see this as the fundamental underpinings of moving things forward. Get this right (or at the very least *standardised*), and everything becomes a lot easier. I see some of this as recognising that the commands need to have a common syntax. Just dreaming up something here, but take the Move command for example: Move <-- context is known or asked for, but interactive nonetheless Move -s fvwm.next.XTerm <-- next XTerm in the ring (but interactive) Move -s fvwm.prev.XTerm -p 200p 100p <-- prev XTerm, non-interactive (Here, -s indicates the *source* window). Resize could also work the same with with -s What I'm really talking myself into here is a DSL which represents the ability to consistently apply filters to commands which operate consistently. This would also mean conditional commands are not a separate entity, they're just filters operating on other commands. Commands might collectively take '-s' to indicate a source, or '-t' to indicate the destination. Be it a specific geometry, pixel/percentage, desktop, page, etc. The syntax for these can be unified and abstracted away. So I think the BNF descriptions as we have them now are very useful and needed to understand how the different commands behave now, and overlap. But for any future changes, we need to think differently. I don't like the overlap we have now between commands operating as state/settings changed, and commands which all do the same thing as one another. The BNF screams that to me even more than the man page does at this point. ;P > * Some way to store it in the function table (at compile time >without making functable.h depend on all other .h files.) Yes. > * An indication in the function table whether a command uses old >style parsing or BNF based. > * A way to translate the BNF to structured data, either at >build time (a la bison) or at run time (like the X event >unions?). We could start adding to the function table flags to indicate deprecation, overlaps_with, etc. Along with parsing hints. For example (and completely made up): imagine some command struct: struct fvwm_command { const char *cmd_name; const char *syntax; const char *other_cmd; <-- the alternate command to use if deprecated int flags; <-- deprecated context_t *context; <-- the window to operate on, etc. }; So here, what I'm trying to convey is capturing the state of the command we have now, whether it's deprecated (and the command to use instead), and some context_t which has evaluated which
