=== Placeholders using window title matches don't swallow the window
|
||||
|
||||
If you use the +title+ attribute to match a window and find that it doesn't
|
||||
work or only works sometimes, the reason might be that the application sets the
|
||||
title only after making the window visible. This will be especially true for
|
||||
programs running inside terminal emulators, e.g., +urxvt -e irssi+ when
|
||||
matching on +title: "irssi"+.
|
||||
|
||||
One way to deal with this is to not rely on the title, but instead use, e.g.,
|
||||
the +instance+ attribute and running the program to set this window instance to
|
||||
that value:
|
||||
|
||||
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
# Run irssi via
|
||||
# urxvt -name "irssi-container" -e irssi
|
||||
|
||||
"swallows": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"class": "URxvt",
|
||||
"instance": "irssi-container"
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
