The problem with xinerama is that no general implementation is
possible. You can have a tile algorithm for both screens or two
different ones, you can share tags or they can be different, it could
be possible for the user to move windows between screens or not, etc.
And what do you do with the

Hi,
I tried different multihead approaches in between 4.9 and 5.1 with
dwm. I remember the following:
- have a dwm environment on each Xinerama screen (like multiple dwm's
in classic multihead setups) as suggested by Mate
- the problem was, it didn't felt right because it added another

I understand what you are trying to say and so I think the best solution
would be a patch which does that thing ;)
Maybe I'll write one based on dwm-gtx (the only problem is that I suck
at c and that I have to do too much school work :( )

You haven't mentioned my favorite approach:
* Currently, each tag is visible or hidden. Change this so that a
tag can be visible on a specific screen.

What about moving XineramaScreenInfo *info = NULL; out of
updategeom()? if you make info a global variable it is easy for people
to have custom tile algorithms which make use of it. If you also
define custom functions to view tags, change layouts, etc you will be
able to have plenty of different
It should probably be abstracted further, to just a list of monitor
positions in the buffer. I'm working on an xrandr patch to do just
this (I took all the recent messages about xrandr as a challenge =)

Here's my XRandR and multi-screen patch, its pretty much not what you've
asked for here, but I'll throw it out as a starting point. I haven't
had a chance to test it much, so don't yell at me if your screen
explodes...
