If I do: keybinding({ "Mod1" }, "]", some_function):add() It does not work. It seems to not like the ] character, because it works if I replace it by "o" for example. Thanks! Nathan Nathan Huesken 2008-08-30T11:09:35 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.awesome/2944 Hello, I wrote a layout which I find usefull. I called it "fair", but I am not sure if that is a good name. The Idea is, that client has about the same space on the screen. The screen is tiled in a way, that the aspect ratio is holed as good as possible. I have attached a patch (never done this before, I hope it is in a apropiate format).

I can't make Firefox 3 usable with such themes, for example. Can you suggest what dark themes you are using and how you tune your apps for it? Thanks in advance Aleksey V. Kunitskiy 2008-08-29T12:12:17 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.awesome/2930 Hi, Another week, another rc release! This is probably one of the latest since the number of changes is still shrinking. The changes are small and nice and fix some memory leak and improve X requests performance a bit. Thanks to Alex, a annoying systray issue with background colors has been resolved. A number of build fix on BSD are included. Maxime wrote a wonderful enhanced completion system using bash. Minor things: some documentation cleanup, computation in magnifier layout is a bit change (use surface instead of height and width).

Cheers, Julien Danjou 2008-08-29T08:48:46 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.awesome/2919 Hi. When I change the viewed tag using viewonly(newtag), the focus hook is not called also the focus changes. I tried: hook_focus(client.focus) in the tag-changing callback But it tells me that client.focus is a nil value Can I somehow get focused client and call the focus hook myself at this point? Thanks, Nathan Nathan Huesken 2008-08-29T01:13:39 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.awesome/2913 Given the recent thread about problems with Pidgin, can anyone recommend another IM client? I need SameTime support, I'm afraid (done via libmeanwhile in Pidgin). tia, Kai Kai Großjohann 2008-08-28T10:00:36 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.awesome/2911 Hi again, some trivial cleanup that (I think) needed to be done.

Now I would like to close every app with C-x C-c. The Awesome wiki tells me, how to setup the keychain. So far so good. But since I am using emacs I also use other C-x key combinations (like C-x C-s). So I wonder: Is it possible to react to a keycombination (with a keybind) and then forward that very same combination to the focused client? Thanks! Nathan Nathan Huesken 2008-08-27T14:45:50 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.awesome/2886 Hi, everyone, I switched to rc4 yesterday---using the packages in Debian experimental. I'm quite pleased; awesome is super-fast and one of the lightest components on my system, and having a full language in the system is awfully handy. The one thing that is giving me problems is the systray component, which is having some bad interactions with Pidgin 2.4.3 (though it works fine with banshee and network manager). First, when I start pidgin and then click the systray icon to hide the buddy list window, the window stays in the tasklist. Seemingly as a consequence, it will only un-hide itself on the tag where the window is in the tasklist, and, in fact, the systray icon seems to only notice clicks when I've got that tag selected. Also, the systray icon seems immutable---where an incoming message would normally cause the icon to flash, nothing happens. When I set my status to be "away", the icon doesn't change. And so forth. I've skimmed the last couple of months of archives, and I've tried to do some Go Michael Alan Dorman 2008-08-27T14:23:38 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.awesome/2883 Hi, I investigadet a little more why my awesome config does not work.

Background ---------- I have a tag configured with a floating layout, the following two bugs appear somewhat consistently when using that tag, also I set floating_placement="smart" on all my clients on the manage function. Description ----------- When a new client is spawned the smart placement rarely works, statistically I would say it only works for 1 out of every 5 spawned clients. Most of the time all clients are placed at the same location (which is at position <0,0> ignoring my statusbar or the other clients) and ocacionally some of the clients are placed "smartly". Another possibly unrealted bug occurs when dragging a window (I first noticed this when working with gimp). To reproduce open a window on a floating layout, click it with your mouse+modkey and drag it around in concentric circles (large are small, I believe small circles make the bug more apparent). The window lags quite a bit behind the mouse, the faster you move your mouse in circles the more noticable this is.

Nathan Nathan Huesken 2008-08-25T08:11:10 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.awesome/2833 Hello, I'm just install 'Awesome 3' for testing. This is a great job, thanks to all developpers and contributors. I have install it on Gentoo Linux and for compiling 'wicked' and 'eminent' libraries on my system i've need to modify ebuild. On attachement you can find my new ebuilds. Other things, i'm french (sorry for my english :-) ) and for statusbar showing date in my language i need to add the following line in 'rc.lua' ... os.setlocale(os.getenv("LC_ALL")) ... I think this work in all languages ...
