15:02:17 → k1R4 joins (~k1R4@171.61.252.42)
15:05:11 <k1R4> I come from herbstluftwm (hlwm). Figured out how to get a basic binary split navigation going but not able to figure out how I move between 3 tiles when the first tile takes up the entire left side of screen and the other two tiles take up half of the other side (vertical split). I am using WindowGo for navigation rn.
15:05:56 <k1R4> =====
15:07:27 <fizzie> XMonad.Layout.BinarySpacePartition + XMonad.Actions.Navigation2D is what I use.
15:09:41 <geekosaur> mod-j and mod-k cycle through windows (also mod-tab and mod-shift-tab)
15:10:16 <k1R4> -- Move focus to the right window
15:10:17 <k1R4> , ((modm, xK_s ), windowGo R False)
15:10:17 <k1R4> -- Move focus to the down window
15:10:18 <k1R4> , ((modm, xK_t ), windowGo D False)
15:10:18 <k1R4> -- Move focus to the up window
15:10:19 <k1R4> , ((modm, xK_n ), windowGo U False)
15:10:19 <k1R4> -- Move focus to the left window
15:10:20 <k1R4> , ((modm, xK_h ), windowGo L False)
15:10:23 <k1R4> so these are my keybinds^
15:10:43 <k1R4> and this image is for context: https://imgur.com/a/ghuiHaJ
15:11:06 <k1R4> now if I press the keybind to move focus to the left, it doesnt do anything
15:12:38 <k1R4> here is my xmonad.hs: https://pastebin.com/Dggz6aZb
15:12:42 <geekosaur> sigh, its confusing that we have both a function called windowGo and a module named WindowGo that is unrelated :)
15:14:10 <k1R4> so what do I do to fix it so that even in the scenario I mentioned earlier, the focus moves to a window on the left?
15:14:37 <k1R4> btw been messing with xmonad only for a few hours and I don't know haskell so please be patient :)
15:16:01 <k1R4> facepalm I mean from left -> right
15:19:45 <fizzie> k1R4: Well, if it helps, https://0x0.st/-OD7.txt is what I do, and the scenario you describe works for me.
15:21:34 <fizzie> k1R4: I imagine the problem you're having is that the default Navigation2D strategy is lineNavigation, and because you have gaps, there's no window on the horizontal line starting from the centerpoint of the left window.
15:22:52 <fizzie> Both sideNavigation and centerNavigation would presumably work. The former is allegedly specifically intended for people who like gaps.
15:23:10 <fizzie> https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.16/docs/XMonad-Actions-Navigation2D.html#v:sideNavigation "This is probably the most intuitive strategy for the tiled layer when using XMonad.Layout.Spacing."
15:23:36 <fizzie> (I feel like that's a new addition maybe, because I don't remember seeing it when configuring my setup.)
15:58:19 <k1R4> oh thanks. Can I please have your complete xmonad.hs for reference?
16:00:55 × k1R4 quits (~k1R4@171.61.252.42) (Quit: Client closed)
16:02:58 <fizzie> Not *that* fast. ;)
16:21:25 → monowock joins (~monowock@24.49.195.53)
16:22:09 <monowock> Hey, would this be an appropriate place to ask for help with something?

16:35:34 × monowock quits (~monowock@24.49.195.53) (Ping timeout: 246 seconds)
16:36:26 monowock99 is now known as monowock
16:36:34 <liskin> monowock99: yes, but be prepared that an answer might come late, or not at all, like anywhere else on the internet :-)
16:36:54 <monowock> understandable
16:37:38 <k1R4> fizzie had you shared your xmonad.hs? I got dissconected in between and didnt see any new messages
16:38:39 <monowock> well basically, i have an issue with xmonad seeming not to execute my whole startup hook and i don't know how to fix it.
16:38:55 <monowock> i can share my xmonad.hs and such if needed.
16:41:39 <monowock> and by my whole startup hook, i mean it seems to execute some of it and then not the rest
16:42:08 <liskin> monowock: doesn't ring any bells, please do upload/paste your xmonad.hs somewhere
16:44:06 <fizzie> k1R4: With the disclaimer that it may not be all that helpful and it's definitely not exemplary code, but anyway, it's mostly at https://github.com/fis/dot-xmonad/blob/master/zem/src/Zem/Config.hs
16:48:46 <monowock> i have 2 sh scripts in my startup hook. one of them is spawnOnce, the other one just sets background at this point, so i won't post it.

17:10:58 <liskin> monowock: and what part isn't being executed?
17:19:30 <monowock> the last two lines of startup-once.hs
17:29:55 × mc47 quits (~mc47@xmonad/TheMC47) (Remote host closed the connection)
17:30:45 → mc47 joins (~mc47@xmonad/TheMC47)
17:32:25 <mc47> monowock, it probably has nothing to do with xmonad. The batnotif-on command seems to be blocking
17:33:02 <monowock> okay, i will see if removing it helps. thank you.
17:34:53 × monowock quits (~monowock@24.49.195.53) (Quit: Client closed)
17:39:20 → monowock joins (~monowock@24.49.195.53)
17:40:08 <monowock> so moving the batnotif command to the end seemed to have fixed it. thank you so much!
17:47:30 <mc47> you're welcome! The "&" at the end of the other commands makes them "run in the background" - if you don't add it, the command will "block" (meaning that the script would wait for it to terminate before moving on)

19:37:01 <Solid> liskin: all my mails are addressed to Platon Pronko <platon7pronko@gmail.com>, Xmonad Mailing List <xmonad@haskell.org>
19:37:15 <Solid> I'm very confused as to why they're not showing up in the archives Oo
19:38:31 <liskin> Solid: that is weird indeed
19:38:54 <liskin> I'm assuming you're a member of the list, so you shouldn't be going to the moderation queue
19:39:09 <liskin> unless you're sending from a different sender address, that is
19:39:19 <Solid> mh let me see
19:39:36 <liskin> so that's one possibility, and the other one is that your mails are being dropped by some antispam or blacklist or something
19:45:12 <Solid> ah indeed! I'm subscribed with a different email address
19:45:51 <Solid> thank you notmuch for making the distinction between emails so blurry :>

23:32:00 → crzjp joins (~user@177.128.197.157)
23:36:26 <crzjp> Help, I'm starting on xmonad and edited this config https://paste.rs/vOn but when trying to recompile I get this error https://paste.rs/Dpq , I have no ideia how to fix this
23:36:46 <crzjp> I'm very noob on haskell, sorry
23:48:25 <fizzie> You probably didn't mean `tile` there in your myLayout.
23:49:04 <fizzie> In the context, that's a function (XMonad.Layout.tile), not a layout.
23:49:26 <fizzie> If you meant the default XMonad tiling layout, that's called `Tall` instead of `tile`.
23:53:58 <crzjp> fizzie: I get same or similar error https://paste.rs/3jt
23:59:11 <fizzie> Oh, right, I forgot about the Tall constructor also taking some parameters. (Been a while since I've used it.)
