| 2022-05-19 19:11:44 | <jao> | in my xmonad.hs, how would i get the title of the focused window? i don't want a predicate, but the actual string to further process it... |
| 2022-05-19 19:13:22 | <evilop> | jao: X.M..WindowProperties is one way |
| 2022-05-19 19:14:31 | <geekosaur> | maybeTitle <- gets (W.peek . windowset) |
| 2022-05-19 19:14:56 | <geekosaur> | wait, that's just the window, sorry. you then apply WindowProperties to that |
| 2022-05-19 19:15:49 | <jao> | aha! and where does W.peek live? |
| 2022-05-19 19:16:04 | <geekosaur> | import qualified XMonad.StackSet as W |
| 2022-05-19 19:16:14 | <jao> | excellent, many thanks |
| 2022-05-19 19:16:14 | <geekosaur> | (you'll see this a fair bit) |
| 2022-05-19 19:17:06 | <jao> | (yeah, i even have that exact import in my config) |
| 2022-05-19 19:39:52 | <jao> | okay, not my day: would you please bear with me and spell out "apply WindowProperties" to that in haskell? i must be overlooking something trivial, sorry |
| 2022-05-19 19:41:14 | <geekosaur> | hm, actually I would not use that after looking at it |
| 2022-05-19 19:41:45 | <geekosaur> | maybeTitle <- fmap getStringProperty $ gets (W.peek . windowset) |
| 2022-05-19 19:42:05 | <geekosaur> | will be Nothing if the workspace is empty, or Just the title as a String |
| 2022-05-19 19:43:56 | <geekosaur> | wait, getStringProperty ois too low level |
| 2022-05-19 19:44:14 | <jao> | i was missing getStringProperty, which seems to require the display too |
| 2022-05-19 19:59:05 | <geekosaur> | asks display |
| 2022-05-19 19:59:19 | <geekosaur> | meanwhile I tried to be too clever and got myself lost :) |
| 2022-05-19 19:59:25 | <jao> | :) |
| 2022-05-19 20:02:36 | <jao> | getStringProperty also needs the name of the prop, i see |
| 2022-05-19 20:03:54 | <geekosaur> | do { d <- asks display; w <- gets (W.peek . windowset); maybe (return Nothing) (\w' -> getStringProperty d w' "WM_NAME") w } |

| 2022-05-19 20:05:44 | <geekosaur> | right, duh |

| 2022-05-19 20:05:52 | <lambdabot> | (gets (W.peek . windowset) >>=) . maybe (return Nothing) . flip flip "WM_NAME" . getStringProperty =<< asks display |
| 2022-05-19 20:05:57 | <geekosaur> | ugh |
| 2022-05-19 20:10:22 | <jao> | yeah |
| 2022-05-19 20:11:09 | <liskin> | There must be an easier way using runQuery... |
| 2022-05-19 20:12:03 | <geekosaur> | that can still be improved a bit |
| 2022-05-19 20:12:42 | <geekosaur> | do { d <- asks display; gets (W.peek . windowset) >>= maybe (return Nothing) (\w' -> getStringProperty d w' "WM_NAME") } -- not much |
| 2022-05-19 20:12:46 | <liskin> | Hm, maybe not |
| 2022-05-19 20:13:02 | <geekosaur> | no, runQuery always assumes a window |
| 2022-05-19 20:13:12 | <liskin> | I should submit this: https://github.com/liskin/dotfiles/commit/1a1c41872a398682456a7a91f14dc5f9ca744684#diff-b4a9e6e4b8f2bbb188cb3bccda65f7695aba7ea7e88e01e82b7a021983e00899R137 to ManageHelpers |
| 2022-05-19 20:13:37 | <liskin> | Oh but yeah, you're right |
| 2022-05-19 20:14:09 | <liskin> | Running a Query on the current window needs a gets and peek too, so isn't much shorter either |
| 2022-05-19 20:17:32 | <jao> | it's a nice to have, though, many thanks! |

| 2022-05-19 22:51:40 | <jao> | is the list of commands available in ServerMode extensible? as in, can one define custom commands? |
| 2022-05-19 22:52:41 | <geekosaur> | ServerMode is a proof of concept, not a framework; if you want to extend or change it, you get to edit source |
| 2022-05-19 22:54:07 | <jao> | thanks. i think this time wmctrl and a bit of elisp is going to be quicker. |
| 2022-05-19 22:56:19 | <geekosaur> | probably, if it's wmctrl-able |

| 2022-05-19 23:01:42 | <jao> | i think so. i know (part of) the title of a window i want to locate and raise (from an org link) and send to it an (also computed on the fly) fake key. at worst i'll need xdotool instead (forgot i wmctrl fakes key sends). |

| 2022-05-19 23:59:36 | <geekosaur> | we'd have to hire someone to write it. and it's not clear that wayland is stable enough yet |
| 2022-05-20 00:00:10 | <geekosaur> | unless part of the remit is to write a more stable compositor than anyone else has to date |
| 2022-05-20 00:03:40 | <woobilicious> | most distros are shipping wayland default KDE and gnome now by default now. |
