17:11:18 <Solid> sounds good :)
17:11:32 <Solid> And have fun in the highlands for me :D
17:13:40 <geekosaur> am I okay to commit #813 with the Hide and ReleaseResources messages now handled? (did not copy those to the renamed IfWidth; I expect that one to go away shortly after #825 lands)
17:13:56 <geekosaur> well, be redone such that I don't need to add it separately
17:25:35 <freedrull> any dzen with multiple monitor configs out there?

17:42:11 habib joins (~habib@91.196.222.95)
18:25:09 <freedrull> i've almost got my xmonad.hs working the way i like again after not using it for 10 years, however dzen2 is still giving me issues. its covering the windows and there is no gap for it despite using avoidStruts https://gist.github.com/mcfiredrill/f797472a6264a7b27ed336dd1de094a1
18:55:30 <vrs> I'm not sure how many people still use dzen2
18:55:49 <vrs> that said I think one of the recent updates changed struts handling
18:57:28 <freedrull> ok. honestly i dont remember why i chose it over xmobar, it was over 10 years ago...
19:00:23 <vrs> ok it was dynamicbars that changed, I assume you're not using that
19:00:41 <vrs> these days I use xmobar plus stalonetray

19:48:15 × ft quits (~ft@p4fc2ae5a.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) (Ping timeout: 255 seconds)
19:49:56 ft joins (~ft@p508dbaa9.dip0.t-ipconnect.de)
20:09:54 <geekosaur> there was a rewrite around xmonad 0.12 which means you need to use the docks combinator to tell avoidStruts what the struts are
20:10:17 <geekosaur> also a dzen2 rewrite which means you may need to pass it an option to enable struts
21:09:33 <freedrull> geekosaur thanks, ill try this here https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.16/docs/XMonad-Hooks-ManageDocks.html#t:AvoidStruts
21:09:38 <freedrull> i added the -dock option to dzen2
22:02:23 <freedrull> sweet its kind of working now

23:23:30 <freedrull> i dont quite understand the default multi-head setup. when you switch to a workspace, the current workspace seems to be sent to another monitor.
23:24:21 <freedrull> oh i see there are different keys for sending to different screens
23:28:50 <geekosaur> the default behavior, taken from dwm as of 15 years ago (I have no idea if it still behaves that way), is that the workspace you select moves to the primary monitor, and if it had been on one of the others then the old one replaces it there. ("greedyView")
23:30:37 <geekosaur> https://wiki.haskell.org/Xmonad/Frequently_asked_questions#Replacing_greedyView_with_view
23:31:25 <geekosaur> if you use EZConfig for keybindings then the new keybindings look like https://github.com/geekosaur/xmonad.hs/blob/skkukuk/xmonad.hs#L265-L272
23:33:48 <freedrull> thanks ill see if view suits me better
23:38:13 <geekosaur> the problem with view is that if you give focus to a workspace with no windows, there's no way to tell where the focus is without configuring your status bar to show it
23:38:48 <geekosaur> with greedyView you always know it's the primary monitor that has focus
