I am not fully understanding your rules part (probably because it is
specific to shifty) : on what property are you matching?
You should match on title property and not on class one.
I would suggest something like that in classic (without shifty) settings :
{ rule = { title = "Mail" },
properties = { tag = tags[1][1] } },
Maybe default matching is done on class and not on title in shifty?
Maybe you can safely override shifty rules or configure them to match on
title ?
Can someone infirm/confirm that?

Hi
I am using gnus and emacs and to avoid that gnus is blocking my emacs
session, I run them in two different instances. Now I would like to have
mu "normal" emacs in an "emacs" named tag, and emacs/gnus in the "mail"
tag.
The emacs one works, but when I open the new instance of emacs for gnus via
"emacs --name Mail --title Mail --no-desktop --no-splash --funcall gnus"
It starts in the "emacs" tag but not in the "mail" tag.
These tags are configured as follow (and the "emacs" rule comes after
the "mail" rule):
mail = {
layout = awful.layout.suit.tile,
mwfact = 0.55,
exclusive = false,
position = 2,
screen = 1,
spawn = env.email,
slave = true
},
emacs = {
layout = awful.layout.suit.tile,
position = 9,
screen = 1,
slave = false,
spawn = ec,
exclusive = false,
},
The applcation matching rules are (again the emacs rule after the Mail rule):
{
match = {
"Mail",
"Shredder.*",
"Thunderbird",
"Thunderbird*",
"thunderbird",
"mutt",
"Zimbra Desktop",
"Zimbra*",
"Pan"
},
tag = "mail",
},
{
match = {
"emacs@ecolmod",
"Emacs",
},
tag = "emacs"
},
The output from xprop is for emacs/gnus:
NC_REQUEST
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "Mail", "Emacs"
WM_ICON_NAME(STRING) = "Mail"
_NET_WM_ICON_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = "Mail"
WM_NAME(STRING) = "Mail"
_NET_WM_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = "Mail"
and for the "normal" emacs
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "emacs", "Emacs"
WM_ICON_NAME(STRING) = "emacs@ecolmod"
_NET_WM_ICON_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = "emacs@ecolmod"
WM_NAME(STRING) = "emacs@ecolmod"
_NET_WM_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = "emacs@ecolmod"
Is there any way (apart from re-compiling emacs and giving it a
different name) that I can force the emacs/gnus instance to go to the
"mail" tag?
I just restarted awesome, and it still dioes not create the "mail" tag
and puts the emacs'gnus session there.
What am I missing?
