2025-09-19 01:37:11 +0200 | <liskin> | There `io` somewhere that lifts IO a into X a |
2025-09-19 01:37:55 +0200 | <liskin> | But also why would you even bother with pipes if xmobar can do props? |
2025-09-19 01:38:14 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> I didn't know it could do props, TBH. |
2025-09-19 01:38:49 +0200 | <liskin> | I though we made this very prominent in the docs |
2025-09-19 01:39:01 +0200 | <liskin> | Anyway, bedtime. |
2025-09-19 01:39:31 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> But also, I want to have a main screen bar and an auxiliary screen bar. How do I tell xmobar which prop to read from in the config? |
2025-09-19 01:49:58 +0200 | <geekosaur> | statuiisBarPropTo, and whatever your bar's configuration is for reading properties |
2025-09-19 01:53:01 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> My bar is XMobar. |

2025-09-19 02:06:36 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> My config compiles properly. |
2025-09-19 02:18:55 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> So, I have this xmobarrc file: https://dpaste.org/0pATb/raw |
2025-09-19 02:19:02 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> And it's not working properly... |
2025-09-19 02:20:08 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> When I try to run xmobar from the terminal I'm getting an error: Invalid configuration file: "Config" (line 34, column 10): |

2025-09-19 02:31:35 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> geekosaur: Do you know what's going wrong here? |
2025-09-19 02:33:31 +0200 | <geekosaur> | that's usually a missing pugin combined with a horrible parser |
2025-09-19 02:35:17 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> Hmm.... How do I figure it out? |
2025-09-19 02:35:31 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> I'm just trying to run my XMobar config... |
2025-09-19 02:35:35 +0200 | <geekosaur> | so it fails to parse "sepChar" with a weird error when the real problem is in the "Run" list |
2025-09-19 02:36:34 +0200 | <geekosaur> | also I don't think comments work in there. It only looks like Haskell |
2025-09-19 02:36:37 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> Is the issue that I'm commenting out the ALSA section because I haven't finished configuring it? |
2025-09-19 02:36:46 +0200 | <geekosaur> | it might be |
2025-09-19 02:37:30 +0200 | <geekosaur> | the other ones look fine, I think they're all builtins. so yeh, I think I'd try removing the "comment" |
2025-09-19 02:37:47 +0200 | <geekosaur> | xmobar's config parser is really horrible |
2025-09-19 02:38:31 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> The battery config was taken from here: https://jao.io/blog/xmobar-a-battery-trick.html and lightly modified it. |
2025-09-19 02:39:09 +0200 | <geekosaur> | that part shouldn't affect it (I think) |
2025-09-19 02:39:49 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> Right... Removing the line that's supposed to be a comment still doesn't work. |
2025-09-19 02:40:07 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> Same error |
2025-09-19 02:40:13 +0200 | <geekosaur> | this is one of the reasons I don't run xmobar, debugging config errors is a nightmare |
2025-09-19 02:40:27 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> I see... |
2025-09-19 02:41:07 +0200 | <geekosaur> | oh. I see a problem |
2025-09-19 02:42:56 +0200 | <geekosaur> | hm, maybe not. your page uses BatteryN, you're using BatteryP |
2025-09-19 02:43:07 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> Is there a way I can write my config in actual haskell and call it directly from my XMonad config? I assume GHC compiler errors would be better than the errors from the XMobar parser. |
2025-09-19 02:44:42 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> Yeah, BatteryN is basically the same but just lets you provide a string to be used as the alias in the template string. |
2025-09-19 02:44:50 +0200 | <geekosaur> | hm |
2025-09-19 02:45:02 +0200 | <geekosaur> | are you using an xmonad build from git? |
2025-09-19 02:45:10 +0200 | <geekosaur> | er, xmobar build |
2025-09-19 02:46:23 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> I don't think so. I'm using the latest version from Hackage. |
2025-09-19 02:47:23 +0200 | <geekosaur> | right, I just checked versions, the trick came with 0.36 but they're on at least 0.45 now |
2025-09-19 02:47:46 +0200 | <geekosaur> | 0.50 in fact |
2025-09-19 02:48:02 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> I'm using Nix and I'm telling Nix to download the XMonad and XMonad-Contrib libraries from hackage and using that to compile my XMonad config. |
2025-09-19 02:48:22 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> I'm using xmobar 0.49 |
2025-09-19 02:48:41 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> That's what "xmobar --version" gives me. |
2025-09-19 02:51:07 +0200 | <geekosaur> | then it's not getting the latest |
2025-09-19 02:51:46 +0200 | <geekosaur> | https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmobar-0.50 |
2025-09-19 02:52:06 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> I'm pulling the latest versions of XMonad and XMonad-Contrib. I'm not pulling the latest version of XMobar. |
2025-09-19 02:52:38 +0200 | <geekosaur> | right, my asking about that was a mistake, I meant xmobar |
2025-09-19 02:52:44 +0200 | <geekosaur> | xmonad isn't actually relevant here |
2025-09-19 02:53:03 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> But if the fancy -w 0 trick was added in 0.36, then it should just work, right? |
2025-09-19 02:53:09 +0200 | <geekosaur> | \I was trying to figure out if your xmobar actually supported the "trick" in that blog page |
2025-09-19 02:54:06 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> It should... |
2025-09-19 02:59:11 +0200 | <geekosaur> | I'm not seeing anything here, you probably need someone who knows xmobar better |
2025-09-19 02:59:41 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> Sounds good. |
2025-09-19 03:23:25 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> Alright... I've removed the Battery section for now and it seems to work... |
2025-09-19 03:55:25 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> Why is there no easy way to search through a repo that's being hosted on codeberg? |
2025-09-19 04:18:34 +0200 | <haskellbridge> | <iqubic (she/her)> geekosaur: Here's what I get for not using a tool with proper syntax highlighting... The error was that I was missing a few commas on the line "-l" and "-h". |

2025-09-19 09:05:14 +0200 | <Enrico63> | Hi there, I have a question about key bindings, that stems from my attempt to see the window with the default commands. To spawn that window, one needs to use these bindings: |
2025-09-19 09:05:15 +0200 | <Enrico63> | , ((modMask .|. shiftMask, xK_slash ), helpCommand) -- %! Run xmessage with a summary of the default keybindings (useful for beginners) |
2025-09-19 09:05:15 +0200 | <Enrico63> | -- repeat the binding for non-American layout keyboards |
2025-09-19 09:05:16 +0200 | <Enrico63> | , ((modMask , xK_question), helpCommand) |
2025-09-19 09:05:16 +0200 | <Enrico63> | The former works on American keyboard layout where / is a "plain" character (I'm glad if you can tell me the terminology for "plain". Is it "unmodified"?). |
2025-09-19 09:05:17 +0200 | <Enrico63> | The latter works on not-better-identified non-American layout. What is that? From wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_and_American_keyboards I see that typing ? on a British keyboard amounts to hitting shift+/ , just like on the American keyboard. |
2025-09-19 09:05:17 +0200 | <Enrico63> | I, on my end, use an Italian layout, but ? still requires shift+' , and / still requires shift+7 |
2025-09-19 09:05:18 +0200 | <Enrico63> | So... how am I supposed to run helpCommand? |
2025-09-19 09:07:10 +0200 | <Enrico63> | It seems to me that if doing xK_something requires a shift-modified keystroke, then such a binding won't work.. |

2025-09-19 09:29:14 +0200 | <Enrico63> | No, wait, it does |
2025-09-19 09:31:34 +0200 | <Leary> | Apparently `EZConfig` exposes `remapKeysP`, so you could also write `xmonad $ def{ ... } `remapKeysP` [("S-'", "?")]`. |
2025-09-19 09:31:35 +0200 | <Enrico63> | Oh, in the example it was mapped to just shift+' , i.e. without super |
2025-09-19 09:32:04 +0200 | <Leary> | Ah, right, you'll want another modifier. |
2025-09-19 09:36:48 +0200 | <Enrico63> | A bit sad that there's there's no remapKeys, just remapKeysP, whereas additionalKeysP comes with additionalKeys too :( |

2025-09-19 09:37:12 +0200 | <Enrico63> | doesn't work |
2025-09-19 09:37:35 +0200 | <Leary> | It should be M-S-/ or M-? |
2025-09-19 09:37:58 +0200 | <Enrico63> | What do you mean? |
2025-09-19 09:38:17 +0200 | <Enrico63> | On my layout ? is shift+' |
2025-09-19 09:38:42 +0200 | <Enrico63> | so I'd want super+shift+' to be mapped to help |
2025-09-19 09:38:54 +0200 | <Enrico63> | hence |

2025-09-19 09:39:02 +0200 | <Leary> | Err, and the order is flipped. Try `[("M-S-'", "M-?")]`. |
