| 17:09:21 | <tccq> | I've been using WindowBringer from contrib, and for me goto window is case insensitive but bring window is case sensitive in demnu. Any idea what is causing that? My dmenu is completely stock and I can't find anything that would cause that in the source of my config or WindowBringer |
| 17:11:25 | × | ectospasm quits (~ectospasm@user/ectospasm) (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) |
| 17:15:44 | <geekosaur> | can you link to your config? |
| 17:16:15 | <geekosaur> | (I don't see anything in the module that would produce that behavior without some hairy overrides to the config) |
| 17:17:58 | <tccq> | https://upaste.de/Emv |
| 17:21:00 | <geekosaur> | hm, not seeing anything |
| 17:21:22 | <tccq> | right? |
| 17:21:40 | <tccq> | it's not the biggest issue, but it's kinda annoying and totally a mystery for me |
| 17:22:08 | <geekosaur> | WindowBringer's default behavior is to tell dmenu to be case insensitive, you're using the defaults for everything, and I don't see anything in either X.A.WindowBringer or X.U.Dmenu that would change it |
| 17:27:18 | → | ectospasm joins (~ectospasm@user/ectospasm) |
| 17:27:44 | <tccq> | so monitoring with watch 'bash -c "ps -o args $(pgrep dmenu)"' I get 'dmenu' for demnu_launcher and bringWindow, but 'demnu -i' for gotoWindow |
| 17:29:51 | <tccq> | so this is an issue of how dmenu is getting invoked, definitively |
| 17:49:32 | <tccq> | no idea, but redefining the default windowBringerConfig and using that with the version that takes a config struct works |
| 18:01:29 | <geekosaur> | right, I just looked over the code again and bringMenu is defined differently than gotoMenu, and in a way that loses the -i |
| 18:01:51 | <geekosaur> | `bringMenuConfig def` should work |
| 18:03:00 | <geekosaur> | (`gotoMenu` is `gotoMenuConfig def`, `bringWindow` is `bringMenuArgs def`; `bringMenuArgs` requires you to specify `-i` explicitly since it replaces the original args) |
| 18:06:47 | <geekosaur> | https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib/issues/956 |
| 18:09:56 | <geekosaur> | er, bringMenu not bringWindow |
| 18:14:48 | <geekosaur> | also, your config duplicates a lot of xmonad defaults for no good reason; it looks like it's derived from someone's "default xmonad.hs" which duplicates everything in whatever version of xmonad they pulled it from |
| 18:15:26 | <tccq> | yes it's cloned initially from some distribution's suggested defaults |
| 18:15:38 | <geekosaur> | the right way to do things is to override defaults, since sometimes the defaults change (like when dmenu changed its usage back around xmonad 0.9) and people's configs broke |
| 18:16:32 | <tccq> | my config has been in need of some spring cleaning for a while now |
