Hi there, I realize that dwm is feature complete and that I develop some kind of love-hate relationship to client titlebars.
Hence I plan to replace the client titlebars with a new color tuple instead: BORDERBGCOLOR (border of unfocused window) BORDERFGCOLOR (border of focused window) I know that there are several people who definately like the client title windows, but I tried to live without them several times, and noticed what I really miss is more a really obvious focus indicator (which can be achieved with a very shiny border color for focused windows). Also after using the new nmaster %u indicator in the TILESYMBOL I conclude it's useless and ugly. I'm going to remove it as well. I know that many people like the client titlebar for various reasons (be it the fact that it's rather unique to dwm, be it the fact that it allows to locate a client when using many of them easily), hence I consider this should go into a separate patch. The only pro-argument I realized so far have been vim-windows with the filename as title - but hey, you can configure vim in a way that it displays the title of the current file in the bottom line. I believe that in 90% of all cases I can simply identify a client by its window contents and not its title (in a shell I notice the hostname in the prompt, in GUI apps the purpose of a window is just obvious), hence all in all the title is a bonbon, but not necessary for the mainstream dwm. To the nmaster indicator - I think I don't need to justify this removal (I considered it useful, but I don't miss it) - we also have no indicator which tells us the current master width value as a number, that's my main reason. The nmaster value should be obvious to people (you rarely use nmaster > 3 I believe). Please complain. Regards, -- Anselm R. Garbe >< http://suckless.org/~arg/ >< GPG key: 0D73F361
