There is something that make me sad with dwm, there is a lack of role
rules for clients. I explain : clients have instance and name using
WM_CLASS, but there is also WM_WINDOW_ROLE which is really important
and useful.
dwm uses XGetClassHint() to retrieve the class and instance, and you
can't get WM_WINDOW_ROLE like this, so it's not as trivial to add on.
Are you serious?
I just took a crack at patching dwm because I was bored.
s/so it's not as trivial to add on/because X is quite shit/
dwm isn't meant to be wmii, so adding in wrappers would only increase
the code size, when it's much more sane to simply test the window
title, or if you can be bothered, mod+shift+tag.
I was trashing Xlib, not dwm. Regardless, the Xlib property
get/set wrappers are in quite bad taste.
