[dev] libixp questions

2012-09-20 Thread Sanel Zukan
Hi all, I'm searching alternative to DBus, as the project itself became quite polarized and because DBus can't be compiled on platforms without pthread support, except win32. libixp looks quite suitable alternative for me; it is small, it is easy to hack and (hopefully) easy to port on different

Have you considered FIFOs and/or sockets? Oh, you want win32... INET sockets as a fallback? Yes, and would end up probably with similar library like libixp or DBus, as both have ability to communicate either locally or via tcp which is quite desired in my case. Also, DBus exports objects on

Yeah! Oh, we could have a variable for everything that one could wish to start in st: STTMUX, STGNUSCREEN, STAALIBKDE... or we could just use -e. Yeah, even when you start it from a menu like dmenu or it is automatically spawned from a graphical application. It's true that a boolean variable

I wonder if it's possible to get something like xterm's eightBitInput=true in st. I would like to use the alt key for some vim mappings. I'm not at all savvy on terminal stuff so any hint about how to hack the code to get this working would be very much appreciated. There isn't any switch
