2023-02-08 03:33:26 +0100 <ectospasm> I finally fixed my DisplayLink setup in X.org, and I'm trying to resurrect my multiheaded setup in XMonad. Here is what I have so far: https://git.eldon.me/trey/XMonad/src/branch/multiheaded-fixup/xmonad.hs
2023-02-08 03:33:41 +0100unclechu(~unclechu@2001:470:69fc:105::354)
2023-02-08 03:34:09 +0100 <ectospasm> I had this working some time ago, but hadn't really played with it in years (ever since the evdi DisplayLink kernel driver was so far behind the current stable Linux kernel).
2023-02-08 03:34:25 +0100 <ectospasm> Now I've finally fixed that problem, and I'd like to revamp my multiheaded setup.
2023-02-08 03:34:52 +0100 <ectospasm> I usually run this laptop in single-screen mode, and I'd like to keep that part functioning.
2023-02-08 03:35:23 +0100 <ectospasm> My current issues: I can't remember how to set up workspaces for multiple screens (I have comments and the vestiges of my previous setup)
2023-02-08 03:36:06 +0100 <ectospasm> I also have a big gap at the bottom for some conky CLI system view stuff. I only want that on my primary laptop monitor, don't know where to start to eliminate these gaps on the external monitors.
2023-02-08 03:36:31 +0100 <ectospasm> The main issue is the workspaces for now. I found this: https://www.reddit.com/r/xmonad/comments/o0drvz/multiple_workspace_swap_for_multiple_monitors/
2023-02-08 03:37:11 +0100 <ectospasm> But that is using an XMonad.Actions package I haven't yet used (I've just imported it without using it in my current working branch)
2023-02-08 03:38:36 +0100 <ectospasm> My first order of business is to move my workspace named "shell" to monitor 2 (which I believe is the one physically to the right of the primary laptop screen).
2023-02-08 03:41:54 +0100 <ectospasm> I admit, my Haskell is always perennially rusty, if it's any good at all. I did manage to write that activateMyTerminal function, but it's probably not the greatest way to do that.

2023-02-08 04:52:03 +0100 <beastwick> hello all, I am working with Dynamic Workspaces in addition to the 1 - 9 default spaces. Is it possible to manually set a newly created workspace's index? Basically I would like to create/add a new named space and set that workspace's index to say 1, so I can use a hotkey to jump to it.
2023-02-08 04:52:25 +0100 <beastwick> I don't mind if the original "1" workspace loses its associated hotkey.

2023-02-08 05:55:00 +0100 <ectospasm> I'm not sure about assigning numbers to workspaces, all of my workspaces are named. They're dynamic, but I rarely ever delete or add any.
2023-02-08 05:55:51 +0100 <ectospasm> I also just switch to them by name, rather than hotkey.

2023-02-08 14:28:10 +0100 <geekosaur> re workspaces, you would have to rename the existing workspace before you could rename your new one. see https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-0.17.1/docs/XMonad-StackSet.html#v:renameTag
2023-02-08 14:33:56 +0100 <geekosaur> (workspace "numbers" are just default names; nothing special. I don't even use them, I provide names for all my workspaces)

2023-02-08 19:31:49 +0100 <geekosaur> you can't do it that way; a list comprehension is a separate list, not something you can embed in an existing one

2023-02-08 19:40:51 +0100 <geekosaur> yeh, you need extra parentheses like mine has (the github paste) so it appends to the list passed to `additionalKeysP` instead of trying to append to your config
2023-02-08 19:41:43 +0100 <geekosaur> in mine, the open paren is on line 203 and the close paren on line 265

2023-02-08 21:03:47 +0100 <beastwick> I did not convert this, as I saw no need since my default keybinds of 1 - 9 are setup, would this be part of the prob? zip (zip (repeat (modm)) [xK_1..xK_9]) (map (withWorkspaceIndex W.greedyView) [1..]) This is from the DynamicWorkspaces module
2023-02-08 21:04:03 +0100 <beastwick> not sure why I would need to do that
2023-02-08 21:05:39 +0100 <geekosaur> that just changes the default keybinds to go by your assigned workspace index instead of by the order of workspaces in `workspaces`. you may want it, yes
2023-02-08 21:06:20 +0100 <beastwick> that looks a bit tougher to convert to additionalKeysP, but i'll try
2023-02-08 21:09:08 +0100 <geekosaur> second `zip` becomes `map (("M-" ++) . show . subtract 48`, I think

2023-02-08 21:20:03 +0100 <beastwick> geekosaur, ok removing the original binds, and including the new binds works, but it seems like I need to manually set each workspace to an index

2023-02-08 21:23:39 +0100 <beastwick> awesome
2023-02-08 21:24:28 +0100 <geekosaur> well yes, that's the downside of doing things by index
2023-02-08 21:24:45 +0100 <geekosaur> I'm wondering if you maybe just want to change to named workspaces instead of using the default numbers
2023-02-08 21:25:07 +0100 <beastwick> yeah, I think I am conflicted about how to approach my workspaces lol
2023-02-08 21:25:25 +0100 <beastwick> i like both the dynamic workspaces, but now i'm wondering if I just need an extra set
2023-02-08 21:25:32 +0100 <beastwick> F1 - F12 or w/e

2023-02-08 21:25:45 +0100 <beastwick> and the ability to name them
2023-02-08 21:25:54 +0100 <beastwick> or rename them
2023-02-08 21:26:25 +0100 <geekosaur> and maybe up the number of keys used, yes. I use keys xK_1 through xK_equals (which sadly can't be specified as a simple range)
2023-02-08 21:26:39 +0100 <beastwick> can F1 - F12 be ranged?
2023-02-08 21:26:39 +0100 <geekosaur> https://github.com/geekosaur/xmonad.hs/blob/skkukuk/xmonad.hs#L261
2023-02-08 21:26:42 +0100 <beastwick> or I have to do each one
2023-02-08 21:26:43 +0100 <geekosaur> yes
2023-02-08 21:27:02 +0100 <geekosaur> [xK_F1 .. xK_F12] is fine
2023-02-08 21:27:11 +0100 <beastwick> nice
2023-02-08 21:27:28 +0100 <geekosaur> may need an import, lemme check
2023-02-08 21:27:53 +0100 <geekosaur> no, no extra import needed
2023-02-08 21:28:27 +0100 <geekosaur> ghci> [xK_F1 .. xK_F12]

2023-02-08 23:38:30 +0100 <kayvank> is there a way to force xmobar to a specific monitor/display?
2023-02-08 23:40:25 +0100 <geekosaur> -x displayNumber
