Patches

This is a list of (almost) all patches I’ve written.

dmenu

• borderwhencentered
  • This patch adds the ability to draw the border but only when centered.

dwm

• alttagcolors
  • This patch allows you to define colors for each tag, similar to the old rainbowtags patch.
• awesomebar (6.4)
  • Updated version of awesomebar which prevents a crash when clicking on the title if there’s no clients. It also adds a hideall function in addition to the existing showall function.
• bartoggle
  • Bartoggle allows you to toggle (enable/disable) each part of the bar individually using keybinds.
• centerwindow
  • Allows you to center a client on the fly instead of every time there’s a single client.
• updatecurrentdesktop (6.4)
  • 6.4 update of the very old updatecurrentdesktop patch on the suckless website. Self explanatory, but you might want to use ewmhtags instead.
• defaultstatus
  • Very simple patch which allows you to override the default ‘dwm-VERSION’ status.
• gestures (6.4)
  • Updated patch of a non-functional old patch from around 2008 which allows you to run functions by moving your mouse in one or more directions.
• inset
  • Alternative version of the insets patch from the suckless website. This one is simpler and can be configured using .Xresources.
• keypressrelease (6.4)
  • Updated version of the keypressrelease patch. Not much to be said here as the old one was functional, just didn’t apply cleanly.
• layout-title-colorschemes
  • Patch which adds colorschemes for the title and the layout indicator. There is the colorbar patch but it doesn’t seem to be as useful.
• nolayout
  • Patch which (permanently) removes the layout indicator from the bar. Smaller version of the bartoggle patch.
• nomouse
  • Patch which removes all mouse support from dwm saving code. May be useful if you don’t need or want mouse support at all.
• query
  • Patch which allows you to “query” dwm for information about it, such as your number of tags, if your bar is hidden, your bar position and so on.
• scrolltags
  • Patch which overcomplicates scrolling through tags. I don’t recommend using this patch.
• setbarheight
  • Patch which allows you to set the bar height using keybinds. Does not conflict with the barheight patch.
• setbarpadding
  • Patch which allows you to set the bar padding using keybinds.
• status2d-statuscmd
  • Combo patch of status2d and statuscmd. It also writes $BUTTON to a file in addition to setenv() making it less buggy. There are more variants of the same patch, see the repository for that.
• tag-preview-barpadding
  • Version of the Tag preview patch which supports bar padding.
• tag-preview-vanitygaps
  • Version of the Tag preview patch which supports vanitygaps. There is also a combo patch of both tag previews, barpadding and vanitygaps in my repo.
• toggletopbar
  • Allows you to toggle the top bar. Conflicts with barpadding so there’s a version for that, see the repo.

st

• st-sixel
  • Sixel support for st. This is a cleaned up version of someone else’s work, see note at the top.
