Wow. I actually prefer cycling between the applications that I work with, and I was going to create an alt+tab patch to give it the traditional alt+tab behavior. Now I don’t have to. Thanks! I think I’m going to keep all the clients that I work with in one tab. Spotify, background processes etc.

I use four tags: 1 – Web 2 – Editing 3 – Terminal 4 – Spotify Since alt+numbers is used for changing tabs in Chromium, I use alt+j, alt+k, alt+l and alt+; for switching between the tags in dwm. I don't use much of the more advanced tag features. I have set up these keyboard shortcuts for launchi

While we're on macros, I use the following macro for each tag, so I can spawn an xterm wherever I want, in what mode I want, just by setting its class, e.g. $ xterm -class XTerm4f spawns a floating xterm on tag 4 (1-based indexing) #define TAG(i) (1 << (i-1)) #define XTERM(n) \ { "XTerm"#n
