2026-03-07 22:18:52 +0100 <geekosaur> or maybe just use https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.18.1/docs/XMonad-Hooks-ToggleHook.html

2026-03-07 22:16:51 +0100 <geekosaur> @eldritchcookie, unless what you want to do is float it (in which case you can just use it directly), you could copy and modify https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.18.1/docs/src/XMonad.Hooks.FloatNext.html
2026-03-07 21:49:27 +0100 <geekosaur> I think there's a contrib that tries the happy-go-lucky "grab the next window that appears and hope it's not a popup" solution
2026-03-07 21:48:48 +0100 <geekosaur> pretty much
2026-03-07 21:47:40 +0100 <haskellbridge> <e​ldritchcookie> so basically if i can neither use _NET_WM_PID or change the class via commandline flag i am cooked?
2026-03-07 21:46:32 +0100 <geekosaur> there are some other potential (but also potentially unreliable) hacks, such as sending all windows `WM_SAVE_YOURSELF` and then iterating over them looking to see if their `WM_COMMAND` (if any) matches what you want
2026-03-07 21:44:07 +0100 <lambdabot> Unknown command, try @list
2026-03-07 21:44:07 +0100 <geekosaur> @eldritchcookie, you basically don't. X11 (nor Wayland for that matter) doesn't provide any hooks to tie a window to what spawned it, and doing so would probably require the kernel to know about either X11 or Wayland and plumb some cookie through `exec`. `_NET_WM_PID` is the conventional userspace hackaround for this.

2026-03-07 21:37:49 +0100 <haskellbridge> <S​olid> eldritchcookie: perhaps you can set a WM_CLASS or something?
2026-03-07 21:36:30 +0100 <haskellbridge> <S​olid> btw, a release is probably the best moment to do this! (i plan on sending an invoice myself in a few days, because as i said i think just having the donations lie there unused feels wrong)

2026-03-07 21:34:11 +0100 <haskellbridge> <e​ldritchcookie> i probably missed something obvious but how do i get the Window if i want to spawn a program? in the edge case that the app doesn't set _NET_WM_PID i can't do anything without assuming the window is tied exactly to the spawning command, i would accept a solution that needs a ManageHook but i also found none

2026-03-07 21:08:05 +0100 <geekosaur> oh right, I remember: changed it to support `XMONAD_XMESSAGE`. (and I still wonder if we should refactor so core's xmessage wrapper is part of the API, but IIRC most contrib uses of xmessage don't fit how it works)
2026-03-07 21:02:42 +0100 <haskellbridge> <S​olid> i think this has to be done manually, though, so maybe it has to wait for tomorrow (unless you want to take a stab)
2026-03-07 21:02:07 +0100 <haskellbridge> <S​olid> yeah, maybe it's a good idea to bump extras as well in that case
2026-03-07 20:53:23 +0100 <geekosaur> although it's low priority iirc
2026-03-07 20:53:13 +0100 <geekosaur> come to think of it, I think there's something in xmonad-extras I submitted recently along with the CI fixes
2026-03-07 20:52:45 +0100 <geekosaur> do we need to release any of the other dependencies? (I don't recall anything off hand except one, but I think we released that immediately afterward)

2026-03-07 20:30:46 +0100 <haskellbridge> <S​olid> I _think_ everything should be good
