I think you mean '... END {printf "\n"}' but even with this you have a
trailing space.

Hmm you didn't read it or didn't read it well. What is your awk to print fields three and four with this input: 'foo bar baz quz'

I use a laptop (1200x800) at home and my work computer (1920x1200). I
use dwm-5.2 with the gridmode patch. The gridmode patch allows me to
use equal sized windows.
I use five tags. On my work computer:
main - two terms named term1
term - two terms named term2
www - two browsers
ooo - one term named term4 and gnumeric
mail - two terms named mail (mutt and weechat)
On my laptop:
main - one term named term1
term - one term named term2
www - one browser
ooo - nothing. I only use gnumeric for work
mail - one term
On my work computer I use tag main and pull in what is needed. I found
pressing mod4+1, mod4+ctrl+2 to be annoying. I first used xmodmap to
switch mod4 and mod1. This allows me to press the keys on either side
of the spacebar with my thumb. Second, I used yiyus suggestion from
awhile back[1] on how to pull in two tags with one key (ie mod4+q could
switch to tag1 and tag2). Here is his code from my config.h:
#define WORKSPACE(KEY,TAG) \
{ MODKEY, KEY, view, {.ui = TAG} },
.
.
.
WORKSPACE( XK_q, 1 << 0 | 1 << 1)
WORKSPACE( XK_w, 1 << 0 | 1 << 2)
WORKSPACE( XK_e, 1 << 1 | 1 << 2)
I use q,w,e,r,t to combine main+term, main+www, term+www, ooo+www and
main+mail.
On my laptop I have the option of using mod4+q,w,e,r,t or
mod4+,1,2,3,4,5.

Re: [dev] dwm default bindings
I also bind dwm keys and others to MOD4 and then use xmodmap to swap it with the Alt key.
