- rename parse_config to config_parse
- move KeyModList and ButtonList in their own functions
- move LayoutsList in layout.c
- move static fcts around in config.c
The big change here is that we now keep our configuration structure in a global
variable called globalconf. This radically simplifies many interfaces, since
passing awesomeconf everywhere is no longer necessary. There are also more
subtle interface effects - now we can reliably identify a screen from just a
screen ID, rather than an awesomeconf, screenid tuple.
Overall, this patch makes most of the interfaces in awesome much nicer to use -
enjoy!
Yes, this is a huge patch, but since a lot of the refactoring was done
systematically using vim macros, splitting this up would have been very hard.
We now have the beginnings of a flexible widget structure for the statusbar.
For now, there is no behavioural change, and the interface is a bit crude, but
watch this space!
- reloadconfig never worked properly. There were a number of circumstances
under which it would crash awesome.
- reloadconfig always leaked memory, because our cleanup process was never
perfect. Making it perfect would be Hard.
- Just exec-ing awesome over the top of itself is an OK solution. Maybe we
should add a uicb_restart to do this so users don't have to think about
uicb_exec.
a. Adds a get_current_tag_number function to allow for above updates
and teaches get_current_layout(...) and arrange(...) to use it.
b. Adds an extra client_sel entry in struct Tag, updated on
focus(...), manage(...), and unmanage(...), and used in arrange(...).
this fix a bug when fast-switching between tags and dropping
some windows management as we should not.
Use window_getstate() (moved from awesome.c's getstate()) instead.
