After a client gets unmanaged, the newly focused client might not be
visible / raised above other windows.
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).
This is the traceback:

This supersedes https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/107.
If a client's width/height is larger than the screen's geometry, align
it at the screen's x/y offset.
Test case with gvim, from a maximized terminal on a floating tag:
% gvim -u NONE -N --cmd "set lines=$((LINES + 5))"
Without this patch the top of the window is off-screen, but the bottom
should be. Fixing it using a number of lines that fit the screen should
display the window completely.
The 'request::activate' signal should be sent and handled immediately,
and not delayed. It was too much of a hack to work around the client
not being visible.
Instead, the "is visible" constraint on `capi.client.focus` will be
removed.
This reverts commit 6963ede3dc.
This gets rid of awful.util.unittest and instead creates an automatic test for
it under spec/awful/util_spec.lua. In the process, it also fixes the test to
actually test the right thing and I took the liberty to add some more tests.

This fix two things:
(1) Clients asking to be urgent while focussed, this have been reported
a few time for urxvt and I usually link a patch that fix this. This may
not be considered a bug by some, but I think it is.
(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.

This way this function runs after everything else did its job. The client will

* Move the "index" setting burden to individual functions
instead of gettags().
* Add some properties earlier so the signal hooks will be called
with valid data.
This patch allows 2 things to be done:
* Write unit test to validate layouts using fake clients and tags
* Query the current layout geometry from another tag
The advantages of the former are clear and simple. Those of the later include:
* Creating a screenshot of another layout
* Display the layout wireframe in the tag list (like KDE2-3, Gnome2)
* Having and 'ALT-tab' like visual popup for tags
This function was accidentally setting the global variable "icontypes". Fix this
by adding the needed "local" and also localize some more variables for
consistency.

`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.

Fix xprop/prop mixup in 'persist'

Since commit 9c69e857ed, awful.tag.setscreen() unsets a tag's index to make

This makes the screen objects use our existing infrastructure for implementing

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.

There is a strong hint that you are doing something wrong: You call

supposed to be emitted on the client object 'c' instead of the underlying client
class.

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).

Restoring a previous history entry changes the tag history (in the

When we receive a _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW request on the root window, we used to just

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

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

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.

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.
