I would like to be presented with a list of window names, so that I can
choose one with completion in the manner of the "actions" and "prorgams"
"menus" that wmii provides in the default config.
I consider this as unsupported in wmii-3.1, even if there might
be some hackish way to achieve this (e.g. fetching the client
names from /client namespace, remembering the client id and the
tag of each client, selecting the specific tag and client after
selection).
I think there is something I do not understand here. Isn't wmiir
supported? Isn't every documented command line switch of wmiir supported?
Sure, but there is no cmd to select a specific client by id.
Okay, so one has to search all clients in all views for the right
index, then select the one found.
I merely asked if someone has already done this, to avoid reinventing
the wheel. It is clear from your message that you haven't done this.
But perhaps someone else has?
Well, I doubt it.
Okay. I will work on this.
Perhaps it would be useful to have another action that, if the window is
shown in more than one view, cycles to the next view and focuses the
window there.
I think that is no good idea.
Why not?
Simply because the tags of a window are displayed in its title
and it's pointless to invent more complexity if you can already
switch to the specific view because you know where a client is
attached to.
This, sir, is a highly convincing argument! I am embarrassed to have
missed something so obvious.
