This is a breaking change and replaces the previous
csd-filter-add/remove and float-filter-add/remove commands.
See the riverctl(1) man page for documentation on the new system.
Currently the spawn-tagmask applies to the currently focused output.
This however means that it is lost if the monitor is unplugged and makes
it hard to set for all outputs.
Change this to make the command apply to all outputs.
This is a breaking change.
- Remove recommendation of XKB_* environment variables in river(1) as we
now have a dedicated riverctl keyboard-layout command.
- Give an example of how to use and switch between multiple layouts in
the riverctl(1) man page.
Warp the cursor to the center of the focused view if the cursor is not
in the bounding box of that view already. This helps the user to keep
track of their cursor when they mostly use the keyboard and the cursor
becomes hidden most of the time, also helps trackpad/trackpoint users.
This reduces the impact of keyboard groups on the Keyboard.zig
implementation and otherwise improves consistency with patterns used
elsewhere in rivers code.
There are also two small changes to the riverctl interface:
- keyboard-group-add-keyboard is renamed to keyboard-group-add
- keyboard-group-remove is added to support removing keyboards from a
group.
This was removed a while back because it was buggy and I didn't know
of anyone using it. Since refactoring it is now trivial to implement
and I know of at least one person using it, so I don't mind reviving it.
e.g. `riverctl map -layout 0 normal Super Y spawn foot`
When this mapping is checked against a pressed key, layout 0 will be used to translate the pressed key instead of the currently active layout.
The number denotes to an index of the layouts set with
`XKB_DEFAULT_LAYOUT`.
From the riverctl.1 man page:
*hide-cursor* *timeout* _timeout_
Hide the cursor if it wasn't moved in the last _timeout_
milliseconds until it is moved again.
The default value is 0, which disables automatically hiding the
cursor. Show the cursor again on any movement.
*hide-cursor* *when-typing* *enabled*|*disabled*
Hide the cursor when pressing any non-modifier key. Show the cursor
again on any movement.
We used to look in /etc/river/init if no init at ~/.config/river/init
or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/river/init was found but this feature was
removed. It seems that we forgot to remove this mention of the old
behavior however.
This doesn't really matter that much as unrecognized options will still
trigger a help message to be printed, but -h is much more standard so
lets make the predictable choice here while sticking to only single '-'
flags.
This extends the `csd-filter-add` command to allow matching on window
titles as well, using a `csd-filter-add kind pattern` syntax. The
following kinds are supported:
* `title`, which matches window titles
* `app-id`, which matches app ids
Only exact matches are considered.
As an example following configuration applies client-side decorations to
all windows with the title 'asdf with spaces'.
riverctl csd-filter-add title 'asdf with spaces'
This extends the `float-filter-add` command to allow matching on window
titles as well, using a `float-filter-add kind pattern` syntax. The
following kinds are supported:
* `title`, which matches window titles
* `app-id`, which matches app ids
Only exact matches are considered.
As an example following configuration floats all windows with the title
'asdf with spaces'.
riverctl float-filter-add title 'asdf with spaces'
Repeating mappings are created using the -repeat option to the map
command:
% riverctl map normal $mod+Mod1 K -repeat move up 10
- repeating is only supported for key press (not -release) mappings
- unlike -release, -repeat does not create distinct mappings: mapping a
key with -repeat will replace an existing bare mapping and vice-versa
Resolves#306
This is pretty much unusable after recent improvements to the cursor
code, and was totally broken causing a stack overflow as soon as the
cursor was moved over any surface until the previous commit.
Furthermore, none of the core contributors or people active on IRC seem
to use it.
The current format of #RRGGBBAA is problematic as # starts a comment
in POSIX compliant shells, requiring escaping/quoting and increasing
complexity.
This is a breaking change.
Currently the spawn command takes any number of arguments and naively
joins them together with spaces before passing them as the single
argument of `/bin/sh -c`. This however produces unexpected results as
soon as shell quoting gets involved in the arguments passed to spawn.
For example, running
riverctl spawn foo "bar baz"
will execute `/bin/sh -c "foo bar baz"`, unexpectedly splitting bar and
baz into separate arguments. To avoid this confusion, make the spawn
command take only a single argument, forcing the user to quote properly
to spawn multi-argument commands.
