Despite using Awesome since the 2.x days or so, I have never really understood some things about it and gotten things the way I want them. Perhaps someone can help me a bit here...
One thing I have always wanted is the movement style of wmii - hjkl where it relates to the position on screen, not a cycle order. I seem to remember things being said that made me think this was not even possible with Awesome's model (I have never been able to find such a thing). So does anyone know if that is possible? If it is, does such a config snippet exist? The other thing I have been wondering about is based on my use of browser windows and now a widescreen monitor (1920x1200). I run my browser windows in one tag, maximized. However, I do not need quite so much space, I could run a skinny term or a chat program on the side and still have plenty of browser space. The thing is I would want the main area with the browser to have stacked windows. So the skinny space on the left would have one window, and the wide space on the right would have several browser windows on top of each other (not staggered or anything, just totally covering each other, like in maximized mode). Is such a thing possible with current layouts? With a custom layout? Or should I just rearrange my thinking to fit Awesome's tags better? I am sorry, but I am not anything but a shell coder and perl noob, and for some reason I have never managed to grasp anything about the layouts beyond the most basic forms.
