Sorry, my mistake - I didn't realize that c.class could change
depending on how the program was launched, which caused some temporary
confusion. The icon signal is really emitted every time the icon
changes.

Thanks, this trick works. I have custom icons working well now without
modifying Awful. The last part was to get per-window icons to be
persistent across restarting Awesome, using a temp file and rule
callback (I hope I am muddying the waters too much with bad practices
;)
# ~/.bashrc
function icon () {
if ! [ -f "$*" ]; then
echo $*: no such file
else
(
echo "c=client.focus"
echo "capi={oocairo=oocairo}"
echo "c.icon=capi.oocairo.image_surface_create_from_png(\"$*\")"
) | awesome-client
echo $* > /tmp/run/$PPID.icon # make persistent
fi
}
# ~/.config/awesome/rc.lua
{ rule_any = { class = {"X-terminal-emulator", "Terminator"} },
callback = function(c)
local file = io.open("/tmp/run/" .. c.pid .. ".icon", "r")
if file then
for line in file:lines() do
c.icon =
capi.oocairo.image_surface_create_from_png(line)
end
io.close(file)
else
c.icon =
capi.oocairo.image_surface_create_from_png("/home/jesse/icons/plork.png")
end
end },
