| 01:24:43 | <haskellbridge> | <Fuseteam> i'm kinda wondering if dwl could be revived on top of river 🤔 |

| 01:37:36 | <liskin> | Seems it's recent news indeed |
| 01:37:56 | <liskin> | Guess it's about time we took a closer look |

| 09:15:40 | <haskellbridge> | <Icy-Thought> Can someone help me figure out why Emacs (scratchpad) loses focus when: (steps to replicate for ease of understanding) |

| 15:28:05 | <geekosaur> | I'm not sure things like that will ever work right. emacs has this annoying tendency to assume it has full control of everything |
| 15:28:11 | <geekosaur> | including what windows do |
| 15:28:37 | <geekosaur> | and gets highly confused when a window manager actually manages windows on it |

| 18:21:24 | <Digit> | curious. i've had no such pains with my emacs configuration, in xmonad, herbstluftwm, dwm, or any other wm/de. |

| 18:47:19 | <geekosaur> | simple configurations generally work. if it pops frames for other purposes (e.g. the hovers eldoc uses) weird things happen because it doesn't bother to mark them override_redirect or etc. |

| 22:27:29 | <haskellbridge> | <Icy-Thought> that makes perfect sense, geeko! Thank you for the explanation! |
| 22:32:25 | <geekosaur> | I've used emacs for a long time, and multiple frames have always been a bit weird. ordinary editing frames are usually fine, but eldoc, speedbar, detached minibuffer, etc. tend to misbehave |
| 22:38:51 | <geekosaur> | and could get it to do weird things in KDE and sawfish |
