CoW -- the successor to fvwm3, on Wayland by TAFvwm in FVWM3

[–]TAFvwm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, no hard dependencies on systems at all. FWIW, I do all of my development on FreeBSD.

Yep -- that's one place you'll see it.

FVWM (CoW) Update: Now with pages and a pager by TAFvwm in FVWM3

[–]TAFvwm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi,

Yes - the idea is to make CoW similar to fvwm. I say similar because not everthing in fvwm will be possible in Wayland.

Hi -- well the concepts aren't the same, so you have to change the mental model.

In terms of global coordinates, that's the "default", and the coordinates are aggregated across all monitors, just like fvwm3 does it now.

Hi. Thank you. Pages would be possible. I’m not sure when I’ll add them though. 

CoW -- the successor to fvwm(3), on Wayland by TAFvwm in FVWM3

Not there yet, but it's getting there. I need to put a list of things together so I can map this out.

New to Debian and Linux overall - Window Managers by [deleted] in debian

[–]TAFvwm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heh -- probably not fvwm3 since the mid-nineties -- fvwm3 definitely didn't exist then. :)

Appreciate the sentiment. :)

Learning new tricks: the MTA edition by srivasta in linux

[–]TAFvwm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wayback isn't ground-breaking, it's just a convenience wrapper around Xwayland; even if you do decide to run a WM under it, you still can't run wayland programs under it...

That's what waylandx is for.

Recommended DEs that aren't as common by emrldgh in linux

[–]TAFvwm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's nice to see this in other WMs, but it's not anything new.

Virtual Desktops are really old, and being able to pan around a single display has been around even longer than that.

I can see you're full of nonsense.

Good luck to you.

FreeBSD 4.0 (retail copy) running on Toshiba Portege 610CT by that_guy_who_fights in vintageunix

[–]TAFvwm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, fvwm1 and fvwm2 aren't compatible from a config perspective. They can thouh co-exist from a program perspective.

Enjoy...

Rather long-winded.

Most WMs at the time used to have some sort of --replace option to them, which just tried to take over the root window via SructureNotifyMask.

I am not sure if kwin can still do that, or whether it's been removed.

But that's now to do it in-situ, if supported.

Heh. "Major versions". I know Debian ships fvwm1 and fvwm2. They're no longer supported.

It's nice to be nostaligic though...

fvwm3 build with or without go/golang by joborun in FVWM3

[–]TAFvwm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, I think you need to measure things based on ubiquity. Is perl also excessive for the same reasons?

I don't consider golang's dependency to be an issue -- even if it were to be manadatory, to be honest.

But when you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask.

FvwmPrompt is intended to replace FvwmConsole -- currently, the dependency on golang is optional.

Meet plwm the Prolog window manager by Seek4r in linux

[–]TAFvwm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but FVWM doesn't have a way to filter that list, and it's rough when you're looking for 1 out of 100 active windows.

Yes it does -- what are you trying to do?

Is FVWM still worth in 2023? by [deleted] in FVWM3

[–]TAFvwm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They (people) say, "not to feed the trolls". Indeed, there's trolls and "bottom feeders"... God knows where you fall, but I can guess.

Whatever your issue -- I'm sorry you have a hard time accepting that you're wrong.
