There seem to be a little race condition (either in my layout code or
elsewhere) when playing with multiple screens. As most properties do
not depend on the tag, there is no point in returning early anyway.
Instead of true/false `merge` can be a callback now, which allows for
more dynamic handling of the client not being visible, e.g. moving it to
the current tag, instead of merging.
This makes awful.tooltip create its tooltip lazily when it is first needed
instead of immediately when the tooltip is created.

Since commit b2aaefd095, we correctly handle window gravities when
the border width of a client changes. Since most windows out there have a
NorthWest gravity, this means that most windows do not have this problem.
However, e.g. mplayer uses gravity "Static" and this causes this issue (any
gravity other than NorthWest will do).
This affects the fullscreen handling in awful.ewmh. The code has to set the
border width before it changes a client's geometry so that the move when the
border width changes doesn't matter.
No new integration test for this since I didn't find anything usable with a
non-NorthWest gravity. A test would be easy to write, just test if `c.fullscreen
= true ; c.fullscreen = false` restores the previous window geometry.

Any awful.titlebar.widget.button widget (e.g. floatingbutton or closebutton)
decides on the currently visible symbol based on several factors. One of them is
"is the client currently focused?" and thus the button has to be updated when
the client is focused/unfocused.
The way the code did this was to use client.connect_signal("focus", f) and
client.connect_signal("unfocus", f). However, these signals are never
disconnected and kept alive forever. The callback function had a strong
reference to the client (as an upvalue) and thus this also prevented the client
from being garbage collected.
Fix this by using c:connect_signal("focus/unfocis", f) instead. These kind of
signals are only kept alive by the client object and don't prevent it from being
garbage collected.
This fixes the new test that the previous commit added.

Go around a limitation of the lua language spec. The return value
of this method guaranteed `ipairs()` correctness.
Please note that both the official Lua and Luajit implementation
provide a sparse table compatible `ipairs()` and __len implementation
by default.
It is necessary to have it beforehand when creating layout objects
for unselected layouts.
In the current layout system, there is no layout object, but to allow
tabs and dynamic tagging features like ion3, layouts cannot be stateless.
Before, it was the caller job to make sure the client wasn't floating.
This limitation is unecessary. awful.client.idx now return nil instead
of an error. awful.rules setting the master width factor are now
foolproof.
This allow the most basic kind of stateful layouts to be created.
It is now possible to have layout instances instead of global
stateless layout arrange functions.
This allow layout "arrange" to be called less often and react on
the cause of the change itself rather than it's consequences
(usually, the "focus" signal).
Previously, the layout were re-arranged everytime the focus changed.
Now, with "raised" and "lowered", it require less "arrange".
"swapped" allow smarted layouts. Currently, swapped cause a full
re-arrange. It re-read the "index" list from scratch and create
a "new" layout. With "swapped", incremental layout changes are
possible.

I have no idea why this needs collectgarbage() to be called twice.
On the other hand, I can explain the change in tooltip.lua. Lua 5.2 introduced
"ephermeron tables". This means that in the following sitation, lua 5.2 can
collect the entry from the table, while 5.1 keeps the entry alive, because the
table has a strong reference to the value and that in turn has a strong
reference to the key:
t = setmetatable({}, { __mode = "k"})
do
local k = {}
t[k] = function() print(k) end
end
collectgarbage("collect")
print(next(t, nil))

Instead of connecting to the needed tag-update-signal again for every layoutbox,

Additionally, layoutboxes are now per-screen unique. So even if you try to

instance.
This kind-of fixes the leak test for layoutboxes. The problem is that the

When a client is not visible, this would adjust its stacking order
still.
This also addresses https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/issues/472,
because it raises unminimized clients after they got focused.
This is used by `tooltip.place` then to tie the tooltip to the screen of

the screen above the tasklist, if it gets considered to be on that
screen given its coordinates.

returned by awesome.xkb_get_layout_group().
The default config has this:
awful.key({ modkey, }, "o", awful.client.movetoscreen ),
This moves the client to the next screen and focuses that screen.
But it does not ensure that the client is raised above any existing

There is no need for hooking into this signal, but this adds a click

In #152 I've changed the autofocus handler to emit the request::activate
signal, instead of setting client.focus only.
This is wrong IMHO, and can be annoying:
If you have two floating clients above a tiled / maximized one, and
close one of the floating ones, with the tiled one being the one
selected by autofocus, it will be raised above the other floating
client.
This is changed now to use the new `request::focus` signal instead.
This basically reverts 20cdb5d (#152), but allows for customizing this
behavior, by overriding the default `request::focus` handler
(`ewmh.focus`).
It would be nice if there was a helper to check if a window's content
isn't visible at all (i.e. covered by other windows), and that could be
used then by the (new) default handler for request::focus - raising the
client only, if it's completely covered by another window.

This still does `client.focus = c` by default, but allows to customize

After a client gets unmanaged, the newly focused client might not be

Using the `request::activate` signal makes the autofocus handler more
flexible, and will raise the focused client by default.
This avoids awful.autofocus to kick in, focusing some other client in
between (where a focused signal would get emitted for, although the
intermediate client was never meant to have focus).

(2) Add the ability to stop noisy clients from setting the urgent state
themselves.
When loading persistent properties for a client, the loop value wasn't used,
but the original/requested property. This would only get triggered when
using more than one persistent client property (the default is one,
"floating").
That commit made awful.tag use timer.delayed_call() to call withcurrent() during
the manage signal. The idea was "if nothing else assigns any tags until the end,
apply some default ones".
However, the C core refuses to set the input focus to an unviewable client and
thus this means that setting the input focus during manage failed. So, instead
of using the delayed_call(), just call withcurrent() directly, like we did
before.
However, some part of that commit is still left: Awful.rules no longer
disconnects the withcurrent() callback from the "manage" signal. This was
originally added in commit 5e7ddd1efa, because it clients flickered otherwise if
they were moved to some unselected tag during "manage". This happened because
the C code unbanned the client when it got assigned the input focus and only
later did some other code move it to some unselected tag.
However, this flickering will no longer occur, because commit 3dbf89c990 added
lazy focus setting. Thanks to this, setting the focus no longer unbans a client
as a side-effect. Thus, if you focus a client and then remove it from all
selected tags, nothing will be visible on-screen.
To make a long story short: This commit reverts the part of commit 90fde1393f
which caused side effects. The part that wasn't necessary any more is left in.

`client.property.persist` can be used to make properties persistent
across restarts. This works by backing them up via X properties (using
the `awful.client.property.` prefix).
`client.property.persist(c, "floating", "boolean")` is used to make the
floating property persistent by default.
Based on a patch from Uli, source: https://gist.github.com/psychon/10320743
doc, only set current prop in 'persist'
Fix xprop/prop mixup in 'persist'
Only call set for non-nil values
This new awful module reacts to shapes that a client sets on itself and sets the
shape of awesome's frame window to match. This way, xeyes really gets
transparent parts again.

Setting a tag's screen to what it already is shouldn't have any bad effects.

Since commit 9c69e857ed, awful.tag.setscreen() unsets a tag's index to make
sure things end up in a sane order on the new screen. Thus, the call to
setscreen() removed the "index" property that tag.move just set.
Fix this by setting the index after the screen.

Since commit 5b4666432f, we use set_text() instead of set_markup()

it in the timer function to restore the old behavior).

This makes the screen objects use our existing infrastructure for implementing

This results in some small API change: Screen objects no longer have an

The bugs this fix are:
* Invalid request using nil as screen
* Stop messing indexes in the old screen
* Prevent c.screen <-> t.screen mismatch
* Prevent no tags being selected in the old screen
When a screen doesn't have any tags selected, then just tag the new client with
all of the screen's tags. That way, we don't lose clients.
Also, if we failed at coming up with tags for a client, don't completely untag
it. This means that it can keep its old tags if it had any.

This reverts commit bbe86e4e25. That commit caused
unintuitive, special behavior. Instead, when someone wants us to set a screen,
we really should do so.
This commit partly reverts commit b4c83d0e70.
Because the C code emits property::screen before manage, this caused
awful.tag.withcurrent() to run on a client before it really was being managed.
This then tagged the client. Because of this tag changes, awful.layout reacted
and ran the layout code. Because c.type wasn't set up at this point yet, the
client wasn't considered to be floating yet. This caused the client's geometry
to change and thus its floating geometry was messed up.

The current premise is that c.screen should be the same as
awful.tag.getscreen(t).
The addition in `ewmh.tag` appears to be the important part here,
changing the order in awful.rules.execute is (maybe) only for
consistency across the codebase.
By default, tag.history.restore switches between the previous history
states, which is not what should get done when deleting a tag.
Without this, deleting multiple tags in a row, will jump back to the
first/fallback tag, instead of the older history entries.

awful.tag.getscreen(t).
The addition in `ewmh.tag` appears to be the important part here,

There is a strong hint that you are doing something wrong: You call
client.emit_signal(some_signal, c). Chances are high that this signal is
supposed to be emitted on the client object 'c' instead of the underlying client
class.
This applies to awful.rules' usage of this signal.

This allows to apply properties and callbacks to a client like
awful.rules.apply would do, without the matching part.
This is useful with the new startup notifications, and lets you apply
the same properties and callbacks from e.g. a manage signal handler.
This allow to spawn something, then apply some properties or rules when
the client show up ("manage").
This commit add:
* "startup_id" property for all clients object (immutable, can be nil)
* Second return value to awful.util.spawn() with the startup_id
* Update the documentation
Example:
local wait_for_it = {}
local pid,snid = awful.util.spawn("urxvtc")
wait_for_it[snid] = {ontop=true,sticky=false,
tag = awful.tag.gettags(mouse.screen)[1] }
client.connect_signal("manage", function (c, startup)
if c.startup_id and wait_for_it[c.startup_id] then
for k,v in pairs(wait_for_it[c.startup_id]) do
c[k] = v
end
if wait_for_it[c.startup_id].tag then
c:tags({wait_for_it[c.startup_id].tag})
end
end

Pressing CTRL+DELETE removes the visible history entry, if any, then moves to the next history entry (like pressing DOWN would do).
If the last history entry is removed the previous one is shown in the prompt (like pressing UP would do).
CTRL+DELETE works on history entries only: i.e. it has no effect on a command entered but not executed yet.

Restoring a previous history entry changes the tag history (in the
meaning of currently selected tags), and therefore should also emit the
tag::history::update signal.
A use case might be to automatically hide tags with no clients on them.
Signed-off-by: Daniel Hahler <git@thequod.de>
Instead of having the C code mess with which tags are selected, we now emit a

This reverts commit 20afb26080.
The commit caused endless loops with tracebacks like this (shortened):

When a client's geometry changes (and I consider the border width to be part of
the geometry here) and that client is one of fullscreen or
maximized_{horizontally,vertically}, make sure that the geometry as specified by
the state is still obeyed.
This also (accidentally) fixes things when a client gets moved to another
screen!

When we receive a _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW request on the root window, we used to just
focus and raise the window. This didn't do much for clients which are on
non-selected tags.
Thus, this commit makes awesome emit request::activate on the client instead.
This is used in awful.ewmh to implement the old behavior again, but with
additionally marking the client as urgent if it isn't visible.
People who don't like this behavior can use client.disconnect_signal to disable
this behavior again. To make this really possible, awful.ewmh becomes a
"non-nil" module.

When an area is split in two, for example horizontally, one of the windows
should have height math.floor(previous height / 2) and the other
math.ceil(previous height / 2), to be certain that no gaps are left between the
windows.
For instance, if the first window has height h and the second window has height
math.floor(h / 2), the height of the third window should be math.ceil(h / 2)
instead of the same as for the second window.
So to compute the size of window n + 1 it’s necessary to remember the size of
window n - 1 as well as that of window n.

When awesome restarts because a new screen was added or removed, clients can end
up being on a different screen than before the restart. However, the tags will
be carried across the restart. This means that a client could end up being
tagged with a tag from another screen. This results in weird behavior of tag
switches and confuses users.
To work around this, remove the client from any tags that are on a different
screen during startup. If the client ends up without any tags, it will then be
tagged with the currently selected tags.

Since commit d8a93dafa3, tags have an "index" property which decides about
the order in which they are displayed in the taglist. If a tag doesn't have this
property set, the next call to awful.tag.gettags() will fix this and "invent" an
index for this new tag.
However, if multiple tags didn't have an "index" property, gettags() would
assign all of them the same index. The following call to table.sort() would then
do random magic to these tags (remember: table.sort() is not a stable sorting
algorithm, so it is allowed to randomly swap around entries which have the same
sorting key).
Fix this by making sure that the new "index" properties are different from each
other.
