- We are tracking focus, using FocusIn/FocusOut events handlers, so user
should never be confused about which client has focus
- window_setfocus function generates focus change requests to the X server
- client_focus uses window_setfocus to set input focus
- revert_to when setting input focus set to Parent, compliant with
ICCCM convention ([1])
- DEBUG flag for those who want to debug focus handlers
Most of the changes, are compliant with X11 handbook ([0]), but some
where obtained experimentally.
Kudos to Maarten Maathuis who helped a lot with this.

awesome
=======
awesome is a highly configurable, next generation framework window manager for X.
Requirements
------------
In order to build awesome itself, you need header files and libs of:
- cmake (>= 2.6)
- Xlib
- xproto
- xcb (>= 1.1)
- xcb-util (>= 0.3)
- Lua (>= 5.1)
- cairo built with xcb support
- pango and pangocairo (>= 1.19.3)
- libev
- Imlib2
- dbus (optional, use -DWITH_DBUS=OFF with cmake to disable)
- gperf
In order to build the awesome man pages and documentation,
you need these tools:
- asciidoc
- xmlto
- docbook XSL stylesheets
- luadoc
In order to build the source code reference, you need these tools:
- doxygen
- graphviz
Building and installation
-------------------------
After extracting the dist tarball, run:
make
This will create a build directory, run cmake in it and build awesome.
After the building done, you can type this to install:
make install # might need root permissions
Running awesome
---------------
You can directly select awesome from your display manager. If not, you can
add the following line to your .xinitrc to start awesome using startx
or to .xsession to start awesome using your display manager:
exec awesome
In order to connect awesome to a specific display, make sure that
the DISPLAY environment variable is set correctly, e.g.:
DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec awesome
(This will start awesome on display :1 of the host foo.bar.)
Configuration
-------------
The configuration of awesome is done by creating a $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/awesome/rc.lua file.
An example is provided in the sources.
Troubleshooting
---------------
In most systems any message printed by awesome (including warnings and errors)
are written to $HOME/.xsession-errors.
If awesome does not start or the configuration file is not producing the desired
results the user should examine this file to gain insight into the problem.
