Hello guys, I've been using awesome for a while now (couple of months). It is working nicely for me but I find a couple of problems I'm not sure how to deal with.
This is how I've been using awesome so far: I start up a couple of apps for each tags. I have the std awesome 1-9 tags. So, for example, I have a couple of vims on tag 1, a couple of consoles on tag 2, and so on. Usually, I modkey+space each layout until I get it how I like, then adjust the ratios of the layout until I reach happiness. Problems: * Whenever I need to find a specific window, I need to modkey-1.to.9 to find it. I know there is a window list if I click with the mouse, but using he mouse is suboptimal. Ideally I would like to have something like vim's fuzzyfilefinder but for awesome client names/classes. * I can't find an easy way of renaming tags. Is it at all possible without using something like Shifty? (The reason I don't want to use Shifty *yet* is there has to be an easier way of doing that with plain old AWM, right?) * Is there any way of persisting the layout/cleints without having to script that "manually" ? Example, in wmii you can persist your layout, so if you want to have one screen with say,. one vim at the right, one firefox to the left, you can do it using the command line. BTW; yes, I read the man page and browsed the wiki, if you think I missed something please, could you provide a link to the info about it? Thanks in advance! and BTW #2: I'm ok if the solution is "you want it, code it yourself, that's why the conf is written in lua". But, if at all possible, I would like to avoid wheel reinventions. -- -------------------------------------------------------------- EmmanuelOga.com - Software Developer -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [email protected].
