If input focus is set by the window manager, it is not necessary to send
WM_TAKE_FOCUS because it has already taken focus.

Both setting input focus and sending WM_TAKE_FOCUS is effectively
setting focus on the window twice which is certainly against the spirit
of the spec, if not the letter.

Add and update the _NET_CLIENT_LIST property on the root window to
better comply with ewmh standards.
Information on this property can be found here:
http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/latest/ar01s03.html
> These arrays contain all X Windows managed by the Window Manager.
> _NET_CLIENT_LIST has initial mapping order, starting with the oldest window.

Otherwise, we read random garbage. Found by the testsuite due to
t/185-scratchpad.t failing because a window was incorrectly recognized
as a floating window.
According to 4.1.7 of the iccm spec
http://tronche.com/gui/x/icccm/sec-4.html#s-4.1.7
> Windows with the atom WM_TAKE_FOCUS in their WM_PROTOCOLS property may

Adds the timestamp parameter to send_take_focus to avoid the dangerous
use of a global variable.
This memory leak is related to matching on con_id or matching when the
container has a null window. In that case, windows that do not match
would leak the owindow struct.
This memory leak is associated with matching by a criteria that uses a
regular expression. Without freeing a regex before calling match_init,
it will definitely be lost.
cmd_resize does not implement a method to resize dock clients.
A command like `[instance=".*"] resize grow width 160 px or 16 ppt`
when a dock client matched would crash i3.

Windows that match the following criteria are floated by default:
- dialog, utility, toolbar, or splash windows,
- modal windows, or
- windows that have specified equal minimum and maximum size.

The function ipc_recv_message in libi3 allocates memory to the location
of the `message` reply in src/ipc_receive_message.c with malloc and must
be freed.
This memory leak was found using valgrind.
Rename `get_binding` to `get_keyboard_binding` and ensure that this
function only accesses bindings of type B_KEYBOARD. Other types of
bindings (e.g. mouse bindings) will be accessed by a different function.
This patch fixes ticket #1168 to extend the window IPC event mechanism
to send IPC events for window focus and title changes. The newly added
window events use the same format as the already established "new"
event.
Specifically this patch:
* Moves the ipc_send_window_event() function from src/manage.c into
src/ipc.c and adds an argument for the change property of the event
* Updates src/manage.c to use the new function signature. To ensure
that the "new" event does not send the same event data as the
"focus" event, setting focus now happens after the "new" event
has been sent
* Adds IPC focus event notification to src/x.c. To workaround a problem
during window close when accessing the window name, a function has been
added to query whether a window is actually attached to its parent. To
avoid obsolete focus notification, a new field has been added to keep
track of the focus without any interference by the click handling
* Adds IPC title event notification to src/handlers.c. To avoid
obsolete title notification, a function has been added to determine
whether a window title has actually changed
* Updates the IPC documentation to include the new events
* Updates testcases/t/205-ipc-windows.t to include the "focus" event
in order to ensure the correct event sequence
* Adds two new unit tests, b/testcases/t/219-ipc-window-focus.t and
b/testcases/t/220-ipc-window-title.t to ensure proper "focus" and
"title" events
The X11 protocol description states:
The window the event is reported with respect to is called the event
window. The event window is found by starting with the source window
and looking up the hierarchy for the first window on which any client
has selected interest in the event.
For the case of urxvt with URxvt.internalBorder > 0, urxvt sets up a
subwindow for its actual contents that is placed “in the middle” of the
urxvt window. In terms of the X11 protocol, the source window is urxvt’s
window, but urxvt does not select ButtonPress events for that.
Therefore, X11 will go up in the hierarchy and deliver the event to i3
for i3’s window decoration, even though this was not actually a click on
the decoration, but into the managed window.
Therefore, we check whether child != XCB_NONE for clicks on window
decorations and then handle them as a click inside the window.

Calls ewmh_update_current_desktop on startup to set the
_NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP property. Without this change the property only
gets set after the workspaces have been manipulated. Also exclude
hidden workspaces (i.e. those starting with "__" from the workspace
index.
Adds tests for startup and workspace switching.
The pixmap of a borderless leaf container will not be used except
for the titlebar in a stack or tabs.
Make sure these containers do not (really) have a pixmap because it can
only get in the way.
fixes#1013
Create files bindings.[ch] to contain functions for configuring,
finding, and running bindings.
Use the new function `configure_binding` for binding configuration. This
function adds a binding from config parameters.
Export the function `modifiers_from_str` from config_directives.h.
This change is made in preparation for the new bindmouse functionality.
The pixmap of a borderless container will not be used (except for the
titlebar in a stack or tabs). Make sure these containers do not have a

When the _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property of a window specifies it should have
no title bar, or no decorations at all, respond by setting the border
style of that container to BS_PIXEL or BS_NONE respectively.
This comes from the old Motif window manager. It was originally intended
to specify exactly what sort of decorations a window should have, and
exactly what sort of user input it should respond to. The EWMH spec
intended to replace Motif hints with _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE, but it is
still in use by popular widget toolkits such as GTK+ and Java AWT.
i3's implementation simply mirrors Gnome's Metacity. Official
documentation of this hint is nowhere to be found.

Make sure the command `move <direction>` properly sends the workspace
focus ipc event required for i3bar to be properly updated and redrawn.
Make `ipc_send_workspace_focus_event publicly available from ipc.h for
more flexible event sending.
Change the behavior of movement into a branch with respect to the
position the moving con will be placed within the branch when the
movement is complete.
The correct position is determined by the direction of movement or the
position of the focused-inactive container within the branch.
If the direction of movement is the same as the orientation of the
branch container, append or prepend the container to the branch in the
obvious way. If the movement is to the right or downward, insert the
moving container in the first position (i.e., the leftmost or top
position resp.) If the movement is to the left or upward, insert the
moving container in the last position (i.e., the rightmost or bottom
position resp.)
If the direction of movement is different from the orientation of the
branch container, insert the container into the branch after the
focused-inactive container.
fixes#1060
When `focus_follows_mouse` configuration option is disabled, do not warp
the pointer when focus changes outputs after rendering.
Rationale: this option is meant to be disabled by users who have a setup
where the mouse is usually in the way. These users tend to move the
mouse to a corner or use a utility to hide the pointer when it is not
active. When this user switches focus between outputs, the mouse is
placed in the center of the screen.
This is clearly against the spirit of disabling `focus_follows_mouse`.
Disabling this option now implies disabling "mouse follows focus".
When the user initiates a drag resize, draw the resize bar on the border
of the two involved containers and snap the pointer.
This solution produces cleaner code than the former approach where the
caller obfuscated the click coordinates of the event. This may confuse
someone expecting a true button press event.
Fixes an issue where the resize cursor is not shown when the resize bar
is clicked until the user begins to drag the mouse.
Fixes an issue where focus is not properly updated after the drag is
complete when `focus_follows_mouse' option is set, leaving the pointer
in an unfocused window in some cases.
Fixes an issue where the resize bar may jump a few pixels when the mouse
is first moved.
(Thanks to pbos for suggesting this fix and providing an example
implementation)
This is done by installing a new check watcher that replaces the main
X11 event handler and calling ev_run with EVRUN_ONCE until the dragging
loop left state DRAGGING.
With this commit, other handlers, most notably the redraw handler for
placeholder windows, get a chance to run when dragging (placeholder!)
windows around.
state->initial is set to false before calling x_push_node() since we
began pushing the window stack before pushing changes. Therefore, the
condition could never be true.
OS X doesn't have posix_fallocate() yet, so put

the cd fails with:
/bin/sh: line 0: cd: include: No such file or directory
so give it a path relative to the top directory
Since the macro PATH_MAX is not defined on every system (GNU/Hurd being
one of those who do not define it), we remove all references to this
macro. Instead, we use a buffer of arbitraty size and grow it when
needed to contain paths.
The commit title is fairly technical, so I’ll try to explain.
Recently, users of GDM3 (I’m sure) and LightDM (I think) have reported
that when switching to a new workspace, the contents of the previous
workspace are still visible. i3bar updates, though, so it is the X11
root window which is not being updated here.
When using GDM3, X11 will be started with -background none, and no
background pixmap or pixel is set. Then, apparently,
gnome-settings-daemon will display a fade animation from whatever is
currently on the window to the destination contents. I think this is to
avoid flickering when logging in, which would occur when just setting a
specific background pixmap or pixel.
So, this commit will, when i3 starts first (not on restarts), copy the
contents of the X11 root window (typicall a grey background, at least on
my machine with GDM3) into a pixmap and set that pixmap as background
pixmap. That way, the content will be preserved and one has a
background, instead of what is perceived as a bug :).
This commit has some chance of breakage, so I’m prepared to revert it
unless we can figure out the issues and roll forward.
Every container 'above' (in the hierarchy) the workspace content should
not be closed when the last child was removed.
Add a check for output content containers and do not handle them. These
cons are at the root of the output container with dockarea siblings.
They may be run through this callback when an output is killed with
RandR.
Fixes an issue that caused content cons to become urgent when the output
is killed with RandR.

This removes code duplication, which will be useful for a subsequent
commit.
Furthermore, we now don’t open X11 connections unnecessarily in some
corner cases.
When 'move <direction>' is issued in the context of a container that
borders a workspace, and there is no suitable place within this
workspace for which this container can move, move the container to the
closest output in this direction instead.
Add DRAG_ABORT to enum drag_result_t. DRAG_ABORT will indicate the drag
operation cannot be completed.
Return DRAG_ABORT on UnmapNotify, or when the keyboard or pointer cannot
be grabbed.
Add DRAGGING to return value for drag_result_t. DRAGGING is used
internally by drag_pointer to indicate the drag is in progress.
Change DRAG_CANCEL to DRAG_REVERT to clarify the distinction between
"abort" and "revert/cancel" actions.
Fixes an issue that caused i3 to crash when a user is dragging or
resizing a floating window that becomes destroyed.

This commit should fix problems with people using a non-bourne shell as
login shell, e.g. fish or rc. AFAICT, $SHELL should only be used for
interactive shells, but we just want a bourne shell, not an interactive
shell.
When focusing/moving to outputs, the method of getting the correct
output for a given container fails if the container in question is
floating and only partially mapped on an output screen. This patch
introduces a fail-safe retrieval of the output for any container.
When i3 begins to manage a window, if the window opens on a workspace
that is not visible, the urgency hint on the newly managed window will
be set.
