Well this function is necessary, I didn't know how to call it, though its name is relevant... If you don't like its name feel free to change it but I won't. The important thing is that it does its job.

I think what "pancake" meant is that code that needs a function called "dwmiinoinfiniteloop" can usually be rewritten to not require it, improving maintainability. From what I can tell, it unsets the second dwmii bit it finds, merging the second column of windows into the first column. Why?

--snip--

void dwmiinoinfiniteloop(void)
{
        Client* firstclients = nexttiled(clients),*t = firstclients;
        for( ; t && !t->dwmii ; t = nexttiled(t->next) );
        firstclients->dwmii = 1;
        if ( t && (t != firstclients) ) { t->dwmii = 0; }
}

The code below contains lots of "if's" that seem to be always true (or should be). Why check them? You don't call dwmiilayoutcol unless if (lt[sellt]->arrange == dwmiilayoutcol). Also, the line
        if (t->dwmii)
should always be true. Otherwise, you'll get an infinite loop. I think it'd be better to remove this check (and not explicitly set firstclients->dwmii=1). This might work better for the case of windows having multiple tags...

void dwmiilayoutcol(void)
{
        Client *firstclients = nexttiled(clients);
if ( !firstclients || (lt[sellt]->arrange != dwmiilayoutcol) ) { return; }
        dwmiinoinfiniteloop();
        Client *t = nexttiled(firstclients->next);
        int n = 1;
        for( ; t ; n += ( t->dwmii ? 1 : 0 ),t = nexttiled(t->next) );
        int x = wx,dw = ww / n; 
        for ( t = firstclients ; t ; )
        {
                if ( t->dwmii )
                {
                        n = 1;
                        Client *s = nexttiled(t->next);
                        for( ; s && !s->dwmii ; n++,s = nexttiled(s->next) );
                        int dh = wh / n,y = wy + dh;
                        resize(t,x,wy,dw - 2 * t->bw,dh - 2 * 
t->bw,resizehints);
for( t = nexttiled(t->next) ; t && !t->dwmii ; t = nexttiled(t- >next) )
                        {
                                resize(t,x,y,dw - 2 * t->bw,dh - 2 * 
t->bw,resizehints);
                                y += dh;
                        }
                        x += dw;
                }
        }
}
