Hello, I think that the most important point is to have titlebars that are as flexible as possible, so that one can put whatever he wants in it (hell, this is the point to work with a WM that can be configured with code: to be able to hack it, right ? :D).
Typically, I am not really interested in "classic" titlebars. However, it would be really nice to be able to add information about the _process_ running in the window. Imagine to have dynamic monitoring of per process memory, CPU, disk, net, etc. use in each window, so that you can directly see what is going on in each window. All these informations are here to be read (directly from /proc, but some tools are always pre-digesting the data, e.g. prstat). It is easy to get the primary PID of the process in the window (at least via xprop, but I assume this can be accessed directly from awesome, right ?). It may be more tricky to get global statistic about the activity of the process with all its children, but probably doable (best way to get all relevant child PIDs seems to be pslist). It would be: 1) nice 2) useful 3) geeky 4) unique to awesome (?? at least I have never seen this before.) What do you think? Raphaël -- To unsubscribe, send mail to awesome-unsubscr...@naquadah.org.
