### Description
|
|
|
|
This patch adds "window swallowing" to dwl.
|
|
|
|
If a user runs a graphical program from the terminal (e.g., `mpv`), the terminal
|
|
will be hidden and only a window of the newly spawned graphical program will
|
|
be visible. The terminal stays hidden until the graphical program is closed.
|
|
This patch helps users spawning a lot of graphical programs from their command
|
|
line by avoiding cluttering the screen with many unusable terminals.
|
|
|
|
`foot` is the terminal by default, you can change it in client rules in config.h.
|
|
|
|
In `2025-03-03 v0.7` version and above, the patch had been rewritten from
|
|
scratch to make it more robust and add a few more features:
|
|
|
|
- "dynamically swallow" windows by pressing `Alt+a` (a focused window will
|
|
swallow/unswallow the previously focused one)
|
|
- toggle automatic swallowing by `Alt+Shift+a`
|
|
- if a window has swallowed another, it get thicker borders
|
