Sorry, my mistake - I didn't realize that c.class could change
depending on how the program was launched, which caused some temporary
confusion. The icon signal is really emitted every time the icon
changes.
local recursion = false
Thanks, this trick works. I have custom icons working well now without
modifying Awful. The last part was to get per-window icons to be
persistent across restarting Awesome, using a temp file and rule
callback (I hope I am muddying the waters too much with bad practices
;)
# ~/.bashrc
function icon () {
if ! [ -f $* ]; then
echo $*: no such file
else
(
echo c=client.focus
echo capi={oocairo=oocairo}
echo c.icon=capi.oocairo.image_surface_create_from_png(\$*\)
) | awesome-client
echo $* /tmp/run/$PPID.icon # make persistent
fi
}
# ~/.config/awesome/rc.lua
{ rule_any = { class = {X-terminal-emulator, Terminator} },
callback = function(c)
local file = io.open(/tmp/run/ .. c.pid .. .icon, r)
if file then
for line in file:lines() do
c.icon =
capi.oocairo.image_surface_create_from_png(line)
end
io.close(file)
else
c.icon =
capi.oocairo.image_surface_create_from_png(/home/jesse/icons/plork.png)
end

Re: How to set a default-icon for a window?
In case you didn't figure it out yet, setting icon in the rules table works.
{ rule = { name = irssi },
properties = {floating = true, icon = image(beautiful.chat)}
}
`beautiful.chat` is a PNG.
I only get attempt to call global image (a nil value on this, and (fresh from
git) awesome crashes. What gives?

image() is a awesome-3.4-ism. With git/master it's
oocairo.image_surface_create_from_png().
(create_from_png() only supports PNG files while image() could handle a number
of other formats, but people will have to live with that or invent magic)

That is for you to figure out and let us know too :). I would try it
through rules or 'manage' signal first.

Yes, this works great for specific windows, but not as a default-rule. If I
set it for all windows, those which already have an icon get overwritten. I
only want the default-icon for those which have none.

Thanks for the tip about the rules table - it almost works for me. The
problem is applications change their icon while they run, so the icon
starts out correct but then reverts. For instance Adobe Reader has two
icons depending on state (one for when a document is loaded, and one
for no document). As soon as it changes state, I lose my custom icon.
Also Emacs asserts its old icon for no visible reason after some use.
Then I have to restart Awesome to get my custom icons back.
It would be great if there were a signal I could connect to when the
application changes its icon, or a way to block this from happening.

What is `mailicon` and `mailicon.image`?
From my `rc.lua`:
mailicon = widget({ type = imagebox })
mailicon.image = image(beautiful.widget_mail)
