It is Xinerama. One view just includes both monitors. That is
different from dwm and other window managers, but not necessarily
worse.

Your patch is quite a bit different than 2wm. 2wm has only one view.
Your patch looks more like dwm limited to two tags.

I guess you can get rid of the functions combining the master and
slave layouts by modifying setlayout() to take three arguments (the
two layouts and the direction of master/slave splitting). This way you
could combine any two layouts in the key binding section of config.h.

ith nmaster=2 most of the time. On small screens I use
nmaster=1 (which is equivalent to standard tile).
That said, I have no problem with patching ncol in, no need to have it

mainline only when a majority of users actually uses them.

Hi list,
with nmaster becoming mainstream (again), what was known as the
nmaster-ncol patch can also be simplified a lot. Attached file
provides a layout that arranges clients in columns in the master area.
Maybe someone finds it useful.

What about prefixing these functions with something like xinerama_?
They would then be all after another and a single ifdef would suffice
instead of three.

And something unrelated:
In Arch Linux, python is now Python 3. Using python2 with wmii is not

It builds when changing the supplied PKGBUILD to depend on python2 and

Try wmii-hg from AUR if you want the bleeding edge. In any case, you may

A while ago, I used to use xbindkeys to bind Mod4+Mousewheel for scrolling the
clients in a column. I can't tell the exact syntax, but the manpage of
xbindkeys is helpful to find out how to bind mouse buttons and then you just
have to bind a call to the desired wmiir command.

Regarding the bug, I switched back to the sh wmiirc version for several

however certainly say that there was no output from Python. I used vanilla

Hi all,
Kris requested feedback before releasing wmii 3.9, so here is mine:
- The fullscreen bugs (#22 and #68) should probably be fixed before a
release. #22 can completely destroy your column layout when toggling
fullscreen, while #68 may make clients invisible. A release should not
