{-# LANGUAGE NamedFieldPuns #-} ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- | -- Module : XMonad.Hooks.WindowSwallowing -- Description : Temporarily hide parent windows when opening other programs. -- Copyright : (c) 2020 Leon Kowarschick -- License : BSD3-style (see LICENSE) -- -- Maintainer : Leon Kowarschick. -- Stability : unstable -- Portability : unportable -- -- Provides a handleEventHook that implements window swallowing. -- -- If you open a GUI-window (i.e. feh) from the terminal, -- the terminal will normally still be shown on screen, unnecessarily -- taking up space on the screen. -- With window swallowing, can detect that you opened a window from within another -- window, and allows you "swallow" that parent window for the time the new -- window is running. -- -- __NOTE__ that this does not always work perfectly: -- -- - Because window swallowing needs to check the process hierarchy, it requires -- both the child and the parent to be distinct processes. This means that -- applications which implement instance sharing cannot be supported by window swallowing. -- Most notably, this excludes some terminal emulators as well as tmux -- from functioning as the parent process. It also excludes a good amount of -- child programs, because many graphical applications do implement instance sharing. -- For example, window swallowing will probably not work with your browser. -- -- - To check the process hierarchy, we need to be able to get the process ID -- by looking at the window. This requires the @_NET_WM_PID@ X-property to be set. -- If any application you want to use this with does not provide the @_NET_WM_PID@, -- there is not much you can do except for reaching out to the author of that -- application and asking them to set that property. Additionally, -- applications running in their own PID namespace, such as those in -- Flatpak, can't set a correct @_NET_WM_PID@ even if they wanted to. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- module XMonad.Hooks.WindowSwallowing ( -- * Usage -- $usage swallowEventHook, swallowEventHookSub ) where import XMonad import XMonad.Prelude import qualified XMonad.StackSet as W import XMonad.Layout.SubLayouts import qualified XMonad.Util.ExtensibleState as XS import XMonad.Util.WindowProperties import XMonad.Util.Process ( getPPIDChain ) import qualified Data.Map.Strict as M import System.Posix.Types ( ProcessID ) -- $usage -- You can use this module by including the following in your @~\/.xmonad/xmonad.hs@: -- -- > import XMonad.Hooks.WindowSwallowing -- -- and using 'swallowEventHook' somewhere in your 'handleEventHook', for example: -- -- > myHandleEventHook = swallowEventHook (className =?
