my dynamic window manager config

Inbox

Volume/brightness scripts should use dunst UI

add scripts either to dotfiles ~/.local/bin or dwm repo

Tags and default programs

1

“emacs”, spawns an emacsclient window if server running

2

“web”, spawns firefox window

9

“media”. spotify or steam is constrained to spawn here only

Configure st

Automatically attach to or create tmux server on opened window

Rotate stack windows regardless of focus

Replace cursorwarp with spawn/kill cursorwarp

Patches

Applied

attachbottom

New clients open at the bottom of the stack, instead of replacing master.

autostart

Run the script ~/.local/share/dwm/autostart.sh at startup.

cursorwarp

Cursor is automatically moved to middle of window whenever focus shifts. Focus doesn’t shift when creating/killing windows.

deck

Layout: Only two windows, master and first window on stack, are shown.

movestack

s-S-J and s-S-K to move windows around stack, a la xmonad.

systray

System tray icons are displayed on the dwm bar.

focusmaster

Key to focus the master window immediately.

inplacerotate

(Hopefully) rotate clients in stack without disturbing master or focus. This would be useful in the deck layout to “flip through” windows in the stack.

Planned additions

smartborders

Remove border when fullscreen

tabindicators (?)

centeredmaster
