When your first editing your config i would just use the .Xmonad and Build from there and when your done drop your Xmonad.hs to your module folder if your on nix and then add then the above when your just doing small edit :wink:
An idea for a Chrome extension: open link in a new window that is docked to the side (whilst main chrome window is still positioned in center; the middle column of 3-column layout).
I think its already possible :flushed: with some brower/vim emulator for chrome for the spawning in the right place am not 100% how
Its supposed to know what collum to spawn on
How do I recover "standard" numpad behaviour in XMonad in some direct way? As in, I want to type numbers here, not special symbols
setxkbmap to toggle numpad?
You mean something like
setxkbmap -option "numpad:microsoft"(which I found but doesn't seem to work)?actually, my numlock toggle works without any setxkbmap shenanigans, and I'm using i3 :thinking:
what is your keyboard?
Right now it's just US
ah, maybe
man setleds?I've tried NumLock already
/usr/bin/setleds -D +num < "$tty"doesn't work?
What should be in place of
$tty?ah, lol, that's what I get for copy+paste
well, you're current vtty I assume
you can find it out with
wI thinkor
whowait im dumb
/dev/<curr-tty>this should be in-place of$ttyWow, it works - wait, does it mean that my NumLock key doesn't work? :sweat_smile:
do your "number keys" work now?
and if so, yeah, I guess??
do they work with some other DE? I highly doubt xmonad has anything to do with kb setup, it's only a window manager
1234567890 :big_smile:
Hmm, interesting
They work in GNOME3, though I'm not sure if NumLock works there - let me try
maybe try
showkeyand see if your numlock button registers
or
xevOkay, I'm stupid - I was pressing "lock screen" button all the time :joy:
Where's numlock then - I see "scr lk", but not "num lk" or anything similar
I guess I just have dumb keyboard :big_smile:
I mean, you can upload a photo and we can look at it together :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
maybe on some fn key?
it should be above your
7key :sweat_smile:I had an ideapad where the numlock was like
Fn-kor somethingbut it also had all the num block keys as Fn

It's this one (with local characters sprinkled in top row, not relevant):

as I said, it should be the one above the numpad's 7
That's "paste" key
curious!
"paste" key??
like what
ctrl+vdoes on windows?Yeah... :big_smile:
XF86PasteI've one of those on a keyboard as well
Xmonad is rad. xmonad-contrib has some interesting stuff; some are rather abstract to grasp as first glance, eg: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-0.15/docs/XMonad-StackSet.html
ideal candidate for blog posts
Do you have your config up anywhere? I'm using XMonad but I lack the imagination to use it in cool ways.
@Vladimir Ciobanu It's linked at the bottom of https://www.srid.ca/xmonad-conf-ide.html
nixos-rebuild switch && xmonad --restartalso reloads your xmonad with new config, without having to logout and login back.When your first editing your config i would just use the .Xmonad and Build from there and when your done drop your Xmonad.hs to your module folder if your on nix and then add then the above when your just doing small edit :wink:
An idea for a Chrome extension: open link in a new window that is docked to the side (whilst main chrome window is still positioned in center; the middle column of 3-column layout).
More generally, is there an extension that allows me to run arbitrary commands triggered by context menu on links and such?
