Hi,
I want to start a process on a certain tag. I could do this combining
awful.util.spawn() and a rule, but in this case I need to do it entirely
without a rule.

The exact scenario is that I have a script which changes to a certain
directory and starts a filemanager (pcmanfm) in there afterwards. This
filemanager shall come up on a certain tag (getting the correct tag is
no problem).

But just this filemanager spawned by this script shall be started on
this one tag, other filemanager processes shall not be affected by this
(that's why I can't work with a rule, because the way of spawning is the
only differernce between certain instances).

Any good ideas how to archieve that? I can pipe most commands to awesome
from a shellscript via "echo 'command' | awesome-client", if someone
knows how to implement it completely (with the directory change) in
awesome/lua, feel free to tell me about that way!

Thanks in advance,
Manuel
