### Description
|
|
|
|
This patch adds an ability to add or change client rules at runtime.
|
|
|
|
The patch only adds one keybinding (`Alt+Shift+R`) to toggle `isfloating`
|
|
option. Upon pressing it, dwl will try to find a matching rule for the focused
|
|
client and change its `isfloating` setting. If there's no such a rule, a new
|
|
rule will be added. The new rule will inherit an appid of the focused client.
|
|
|
|
It's very easy to add support for more rule options from other patches as well.
|
|
You just need to define a new function similar to `setruleisfloating` and add a
|
|
new keybinding to `config.h`. For example, this is a function I created for my
|
|
build to toggle `noswallow` option from the [swallow][swallow] patch:
|
|
|
|
```c
|
|
void
|
|
setrulenoswallow(const Arg *arg)
|
|
{
|
|
Rule *r = getrule(focustop(selmon));
|
|
if (!r)
|
|
return;
|
|
r->noswallow = !r->noswallow;
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**NOTE**: This patch makes it impossible to have rules with `NULL` title *and*
|
|
appid (such a rule is used internally to mark the end of `rules` array).
|
|
|
|
**NOTE:** If you happen to apply patches that add new options to the rules, make
|
|
sure to update `rule_default` variable in `config.h` as well. This variable is
|
|
used for newly created rules.
