Launcher revisited
Added configureable fonts, window modes and proper multihead handling
Time (r65) to get rid of some annoying aspects of the launcher.
These changes require at least subtle r2470 or higher.
Fonts¶
Fonts can now be configured once after load and work in the same way as in subtle:
Numbers: on /off 1 begin
2 require "#{ENV["HOME"]}/path/to/launcher.rb"
3
4 # Set fonts
5 Subtle::Contrib::Launcher.fonts = [
6 "xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:pixelsize=80:antialias=true",
7 "xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:pixelsize=12:antialias=true"
8 ]
9 rescue LoadError => error
10 puts error
11 end
Window modes¶
Besides tags and views, the launcher can set window modes directly. E.g. ^urxvt will open a floating urxvt. Following windows modes are possible and can be intermixed:
Mode | Meaning |
---|---|
+ | Full screen mode |
^ | Floating mode |
* | Sticky mode |
Multihead¶
On multihead displays, the launcher will now appear on the current screen.
