I'm trying to find information regarding writing my own custom layout for awesome. Instead of the ones that come with it, I want one where my screen is split into columns, and if you assign multiple windows to the same column, they'll just stack.
I've tried reading through the source code for the built-in layouts, but it's hard to tell what's going on (a combination of few comments and Lua being dynamically typed). The API documentation is also quite scant in this regard. Are there any resources available to help me write my own custom layout for awesome? Do you have any hints as to where to start? I'd also be grateful for any nice examples of others' custom layouts, so I can see how they work (as far as I can tell from reading the source code, I need to call client:geometry(new_geometry), but I'm not sure if I need to do anything else, or exactly what the parameters to "arrange" are). Thanks in advance.
