I think what you want is the "pertag" patch, which, if I'm not
completely wrong, allows you to choose your layout per tag. Then you
can have a tag for Thunderbird and a tag for Skype and set them to
different layouts. Does that work for you?

Actually, I already use the pertag patch and it's not what I'm looking
for. 'Cause dwm use a fixed number of tags.
Is there something preventing you from defining more tags in your config.h?
Not really! But don't wanna have a dozen of tags, I rather prefer
working with categories.
Plus, the system really interest me and I wanted to check out if it
doesn't already exist before I start trying to understand the dwm code
and messing with it.
For example, if I want a third application for chat (I don't know, say
pidgin) I have to create a new tag, and it's not very handy to create a
new tag for each new application I install.
Plus, this layer system may help to simulate tabs (even more powerful
'cause we can have layouts).
Thanks anyway, may be I should try to implement it myself.
