Rebuilt my GTK with this patch and it did wonders; thanks for looking

Sorry, but that doesn't seem to work for me. (Were you testing using
xombrero? we added a pretty horrible hack to fake a focus-in event
under certain conditions so help minimize this problem, before it was
discovered this was a bug either in the WM or GTK. I removed this
hack before testing this dwm patch.)
One of our spectrwm devs says he believes he found the bug. I don't
know WM code so I may be putting words in his mouth here.. but I
believe it was something about calling an unmap on all other windows
first, then an unmap on windows in the current workspace, which meant
newly mapped windows were totally obscuring the GTK3 window, causing a
VisibilityNotify state VisibilityFullyObscured. Don't ask me what all
that means :)
No idea if this is the same problem in dwm, but I suppose it's worth
looking into.

[dev] Bug when unfocusing/focusing GTK3 windows
This is a focusing issue that was noticed when we (me and many of the the other xombrero devs) noticed when we switched our browser from GTK2 to GTK3. If a GTK3 window is shown and focused on one tag, and I switch to another tag with no windows on it, whenever I switch back to the tag with the GTK3 window, the toplevel GtkWindow no longer has its it-active and has-toplevel-focus properties set to true. If I try this with multiple windows on the tag, and the GTK3 window is not focused, switching to the empty workspace does not trigger the bug. This focus bug causes all sorts of problems with our browser, like events no longer firing correctly and the text cursors in GtkEntry widgets being shown as invisible (like if the window was unfocusd). I'm not sure if this is a GTK3 or dwm bug, but I was able to successfully reproduce it on other GTK3 apps (not just our browser). The only other WM we have seen the issue with is spectrwm, but as that was forked off from dwm, it's possible/likely the bug (if not a GTK3 bug) is present in both. -- Josh Rickmar http://jrick.devio.us/ smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature

[dev] New floating windows on unselected tags are misplaced
Hello, With the latest dwm tip, I just noticed that if a floating window is opened and tagged with an unselected tag via the config.h rules, the window will be shifted all the way over to the left side of the screen when the tag is activated. I have all my mplayer windows automatically tagged on tag 9, and if I don't have tag 9 currently in view and open a mplayer window, the window will be shifted over. However, if I do have tag 9 selected when opening, the mplayer window is then placed in the center of the screen. It's been a while since I've last updated to tip so I'm not sure what commit caused this bug. -- Josh Rickmar http://jrick.devio.us/ smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature

I recently switched from an always-open mutt (that used a terminal bell when new mail arrived) to using heirloom's mailx. Now, if there's a new mail message, my dwm statusbar script will append a little "new mail" notification. I haven't yet completed the switch from irssi to something more decent (read: ii) but would probably do the same sort of thing if someone sent me a private message or used my nick in a channel. Josh

This would also make it easy to switch to any buffer you wanted since it would just be part of the window manger.

Most of the time I'm editing with sam, however if for whatever reason I do use vim, I have the hjkl keybindings remapped to colemak's neio. This is shifted over one key to the right (qwerty jkl;), but I think it makes much more sense since that's where you hand is placed already. I also have tab mapped to escape (with shift-tab inserting a literal tab character).

Mainly due to a bug(?) in dmenu_run where everything is escaped before being executed by the shell. So, for example, I can't run `st -e "tmux a"` from dmenu_run, since it parses it as st -e \"tmux a\" instead. The xterm-like -e behavior circumvents this issue.
[dev] [st] Fixed -e with support for spaces
Here's a quick fix to pass the opt_cmd to $SHELL -c, which fixes a
bug where you couldn't call -e with a command with spaces (arguments
to that command).
I earlier tried to pass the command directly to execvp() by using
strsep to set args, but the code turned out to be far too complex
(I think).

This all really depends on how you like your fonts rendered. When Apple first ported Safari to Windows, everyone was screaming about how the fonts looked like crap. The Apply way is to use little hinting and respect the shape of the font glyphs, while the Microsoft way is to hammer the font into the pixel grid so it looks sharper, but also causes the original typeface's unique shape to suffer. Personally, I prefer the autohinter since I've found that with slight hinting it looks very similar to the way Apple renders their fonts. I don't know if Apple uses an autohinter or the hints in the font, but they certainly put a lot less emphasis on the hinting and more on the shape. Generally, if you like your fonts sharp on screen (Microsoft), designer hints are usually the best. If you want your fonts to look more like print (Apple), using the autohinter seems to work better. Not that this matters much, as I spend most of my time staring at bitmaped monospace fonts. Josh Rickmar

[dev] Stripping html from email
Is there currently a tool or script that I can use to strip html from emails? Basically, it should work like this: - Read the message from stdin - If there is no html, leave as is - If it finds both html and plain text, strip the html attachment - If it finds html but no plain text, leave as is In case something like this doesn't exist, I wouldn't mind writing one for myself (awk sounds like the right tool for the job).

It also means that you can't then use left and right for horizontal scrolling. If spatial navigation does stay, then the patch to add horizontal scrolling should probably be added to surf.

It's not really suckless, but I think that overall it's better than LaTeX. The syntax feels rather lisp-y (it's actually a functional language), but is much easier to extend and program than TeX. It's written entirely in C and the lout distribution is *much* smaller than (La)TeX. $ du -sh lout.lib/ 5.5Mlout.lib/ lout outputs directly to postscript, so compiling to pdf is rather easy. $ lout test.lout | ps2pdf - test.pdf Links: [1] http://lout.wiki.sourceforge.net/

I first thought of this as a sort of joke, but after more consideration it may actually be a good way to teach it. Suckless programers need to be able to take criticism (even if it doesn't always seem constructive), and then be able to build upon suggestions (if any) to improve their code. A new programmer's first reaction will probably be the same as most of the other crap programmers out there (more code = more 1337ness), so some guidance from one who has "seen the light" would certainly be beneficial. If they can't be told by others that their code sucks, I'm not sure that they'll ever program suckless. Josh Rickmar

[dev] Focusing problem in tabbed
I noticed that when using tabbed (with either surf or xterm), that if the window is focused with the mouse over another window, I am able to send keystrokes to tabbed (next/previous tab, for example), but am not able to send keystrokes so the surf or xterm window. I have to manually move my mouse over the tabbed window before I am then able to type in that window. I'm also running dwm, in case that makes any difference.

Well, can't say much here. OpenBSD did just make the switch from GCC3 to GCC4 recently in -current, and I believe the main reason was for C++ support. Also note that OpenBSD is trying to phase out all C++ from the source tree (ex. see mandoc) so they can switch to using pcc. > What about the kernels? NetBSD - XML parser in the kernel!

If hardware doesn't work in openbsd there's usually a good reason, like if a hardware vendor will not release documentation (with or without an NDA).

Why not just place it under something like the ISC license, or even closer to "public domain", the WTFPL license?
[dev] Binding mouse events in surf
Is there any way to currently bind mouse buttons to functions in surf's config.h? I'm trying to figure out a way to make the forward/backward buttons on my mouse (buttons 8 and 9) call the navigate function. Are there any GDK_* values for the mouse which will work? If something like this isn't currently possible, is there an external application to bind these buttons to the back/forward keyboard shortcuts when a surf window has focus?

[dev] sic - remove stdout formatting?
I would like to (re)write an irc bot using sic, but the formatted output is making this harder then it could/should be. For example, the first field, the channel or irc server, is cut off at 12 characters by a colon. This becomes a problem when trying to parse the output because longer field names can be cut off. It can also cause the number of fields (seperated by whitespace) to change since a field with >=12 characters will be missing a space between the name and the colon. To make this program more useful, wouldn't it be better if all the information was presented to the user? Doing so would make writing bots much easier and would allow the user to easily format the output any way he/she wants to by passing sic's output to awk. Josh Rickmar
