patch: swallow
This patch adds "window swallowing" to dwm as known from Plan 9's
windowing system rio.
Clients marked with isterminal in config.h swallow a window opened by
any child process, e.g. running xclock in a terminal. Closing the xclock
window restores the terminal window in the current position.
This patch helps users spawning a lot of graphical programs from their
command line by avoiding cluttering the screen with many unusable
terminals. Being deep down in a directory hierarchy just does not make
the use of dmenu feasible.
Dependencies
* libxcb
* Xlib-libxcb
* xcb-res
These dependencies are needed due to the use of the latest revision of
the X Resource Extension which is unsupported in vanilla Xlib.
Notes:
* The window swallowing functionality requires dwm to walk the process
tree, which is an inherently OS-specific task. Only Linux and FreeBSD
are supported at this time. Please contact one of the authors if you
would like to help expand the list of supported operating systems.
* Only terminals created by local processes can swallow windows, and
only windows created by local processes can be swallowed.
