bspwm

Edit Package bspwm

A tiling window manager based on binary space partitioning.
* It only responds to X events, and the messages it receives on a dedicated socket.
* bspc is a program that writes messages on bspwm's socket.
* bspwm doesn't handle any keyboard or pointer inputs: a third party program (e.g. sxhkd) is needed in order to translate keyboard and pointer events to bspc invocations.

- Update 0.9.7:
  * Bug fix for "single_monocle does not work for the first node on
  a desktop"
- From 0.9.5 to 0.9.6
- Additions
  * New wm command: --restart. It was already possible to restart
    bspwm without loosing the current state through
    --{dump,load}-state, but this command will also keep the
    existing subscribers intact.
  * New settings: automatic_scheme, removal_adjustment.
    The automatic insertion mode now provides three ways of
    inserting a new node: spiral, longest_side (the default)
    and alternate. Those schemes are described in the README.
  * New settings: ignore_ewmh_struts, presel_feedback,
    {top,right,bottom,left}_monocle_padding.
  * New node descriptor: smallest.
  * New desktop modifier: active.
- Changes
  * The focused and active modifiers now mean the same
    thing across every object.
  * Fullscreen windows are no longer sent to the above layer.
    Within the same layer, fullscreen windows are now above floating
    windows. If you want a floating window to be above a fullscreen
    window, you'll need to rely on layers.
  * Pseudo-tiled windows now shrink automatically.
- Removals
  * The paddingless_monocle setting was removed (and subsumed).

Upstream has published a new version (0.9.6) https://github.com/baskerville/bspwm/releases/tag/0.9.6

With no release notes.... Again. Is there a mailing list or something?


Jared Komoroski's avatar

Not that I'm aware of. Small project, not even a website. Is there something I can do to help? I've been running 0.9.6 (or the equivalent commit) from a source build for a few weeks without any issue, for what it's worth.

Looks like there was a bug fix and immediate release to version 0.9.7.


Jared Komoroski's avatar

I've been testing version 0.9.6 locally. Didn't see any issues, so I've moved on to 0.9.7 and set up an obs package for it. I'll give it a few days to bake before making a request.
