Re: [dev] [st] Full screen without menu bar?

Ah, so the patch is for an earlier commit? Which maybe explains why my attempt failed by not finding the file to patch. Although I rather suspect the patch is for the window system which then needs to be compiled with st. However, I appreciate that people on this list are pretty busy -- in fact I

Okay, cheers man -- I'll get back to this when I have some more time to read up fully on the project and how it all hangs together. Thanks again, Doug. On 8 February 2017 at 15:41, Markus Teich wrote: > doug livesey wrote: >> Could you advise me on how to apply the

Fair enough, cheers for the help so far. On 8 February 2017 at 14:44, Greg Reagle wrote: > On Wed, Feb 8, 2017, at 04:15, doug livesey wrote: >> Hi -- I tried applying the patch in the simplest way (from some >> instructions I googled up), but it didn't know what file to

Hi -- I tried applying the patch in the simplest way (from some instructions I googled up), but it didn't know what file to apply the patch to. I suspect I'm operating with rather incomplete knowledge! Could you advise me on how to apply the patch to the st project? (Does it maybe need to be done

Re: [dev] [st] Full screen without menu bar?

I think that st does not have a menu bar. What are you referring to? Perhaps you mean the title bar [1]? If you are referring to the title bar or any other window decoration [2], they are drawn by the window manager, so you need to tell the window manager to display full screen. What window

Re: [dev] [st] Full screen without menu bar?

I'd have to figure out how to code that patch, first! :) I totally see the sense in keeping the concerns separated between an app and a window manager. However, everything I've tried so far hasn't enabled me to run st in full-screen mode, so it's looking like the window manager doesn't enable full

Re: [dev] [st] Full screen without menu bar?

Hi, Typically, window decorations are for the window manager to handle. Although applications can help (e.g., by providing shortcuts and special full-screen modes), I think that the separation of concerns (between the roles of the wm and the applications) is considered more suckless. As a result,

[dev] [st] Full screen without menu bar?

Hi -- is it possible to get st to run full screen without the menu bar? Like when I press F11 when I'm running gnome-terminal. (I'm running Linux Mint, btw.) Thanks, Doug.
