hm, just took a quick glance into the code and suppose, using the current design, it would result in [1/5] whichever of the 5 windows is focused, because focusing another window internally results in moving the window to the top of a stack. There is no fixed order of all windows currently tagged. *time keeps running on...* oook, wasn't a big problem in the end, even if it took some time.. a patch for your request can be found at http://v4hn.de/patches/dwm-5.1_monocle_count.diff have fun using it :) > I definitely think that an indicator of how many windows are on the tab > would be helpful. > > Also, implementing the alt-tab to switch between the windows on that tab > would seem to make sense. What's the problem? Change this line in config.h { MODKEY, XK_j, focusstack, {.i = +1 } }, to { MODKEY, XK_Tab, focusstack, {.i = +1 } }, and if your MODKEY is Alt, you got your alt-tab-switch.. v4hn PS: It's absolutly great to hack your code everyone, such pearls of design are seldom...
