Add a function to i3bar to print an error message in the status line
when the child process invoked by status_command fails to provide
input that can be displayed as a statusline.
When the child provides JSON that cannot be parsed, alert the user and
convey a short message provided by yajl communicating the specific
problem.
When the child (or the shell executing the status command) exits
unexpectedly, alert the user and display the exit code. The cases where
the status command is not executable or not found in the user's PATH are
treated specially.

Remove the line to warp the pointer to (0, 0) in `new-test` helper
script, which is used to create new tests.
Since 4.6-g0634766, testcases may assume at the start of the test that
the pointer begins at position (0, 0).
Tests may disturb the pointer in their normal operation that may lead to
unexpected results in later tests using that display. Reset the pointer
before a test begins to (0, 0) to save test developers from related
"gotchas" and reduce multi-monitor test boilerplate.
Split test 514's assertion into three assertions to make it more
explicit what is being tested, and why a run might fail.
Move critical test code out of the event handler to clarify flow and
allow a query of the actual current workspace to use in assertions.
Works around an issue which caused this test to fail spurriously because
of pointer-related quirks in the i3 test suite which would sometimes
cause i3 to open on workspace 2 (However, the test is now agnostic to
the initial workspace or output).
Set the process group id of the child process by calling `setpgid` after
forking and before calling `exec`.
The process group ID will be set to the process ID of the forked
process. Processes spawned by this child process will also have this
group ID.
Send signals to the process group with `killpg`. This will send the
signal to all of the process group.
fixes#1128
UnmapNotify events are interpreted by i3bar as an action taken by an
application to hide its tray window. Likewise, MapNotify events are
interpreted as an action taken by by an application to show its tray
window.
The actual cause of these events may be the application itself, or the
result of some action taken by i3bar itself at the request of the
application in the course of the XEmbed protocol.
We respond by adjusting the size of the tray window and realigning any
tray clients that remain. This will make room for the mapping window or
close the gap left by the unmapping window when the bar is redrawn.

OS X doesn't have posix_fallocate() yet, so put
bf760d0241 in
#if defined(__APPLE__)
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.
Handle DestroyNotify events by removing the tray client from the tray
client list held in memory.
This change is intended to be part of the i3bar's implementation of the
XEmbed protocol. For more information, see:
<http://standards.freedesktop.org/xembed-spec/xembed-spec-latest.html>
According to the XEmbed protocol specification, this is one way for a
tray client to finish the protocol. After this event is received, i3bar
should have no more interaction with the tray client.
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.
fixes: #1121
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.
The pango font specification accepts a font size in points, but pango
defaults to a DPI of 96. Create a default PangoContext (which
internally creates a default PangoCairoFontMap as usual) and set the
DPI to the value of the root Screen manually.
Fixes#1115
When determining whether to hide or unhide the bar on redraw in hide
mode, use simpler rules. When the config specifies the 'show' state or a
workspace is urgent, or if the caller requests it, or the modifier is
pressed, show the bar. Otherwise, hide the bar.
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.
Adds two files to gitignore.
`.clang_complete` is created by the clang_complete vim plugin
[https://github.com/Rip-Rip/clang_complete]
`Xdummy.so` is created by compiling the Xdummy module.
If the config specifies a `tray_output` not in the list of outputs over
which this bar will span, do not initialize a tray for the bar.
Fixes former behavior, which was to initialize the tray without showing
the icons, causing disapearing tray icons in multi-monitor environments
when `tray_output` isnt `output`.
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.
fixes#1088
Test for the existence of the symlink to "latest" with the -l flag,
which tests if the target is a symbolic link. Testing with the -e flag
will fail in case the link points to a file that does not exist, which
will occur if the test result directories are deleted by hand.
i3 would accept an invalid resize command like 'resize shrink width 10
px or' without specifying the ppt value, and then crash. This patch
fixes the parser specification.
The user's guide talks about renaming workspaces, for example to
"2: mail", and a sample key binding for use with i3-input is supplied.
However, this example lacks proper quoting for the format string, so
that when workspace name with a space in it, like "2: mail", is given,
the current workspace is renamed to "2:". This patch adds proper
quoting.
