Event
|
||||
An event is a message which can be read from a special file in the filesystem
|
||||
of
|
||||
.BR wmiiwm
|
||||
like a mouse button press, a key press, or a message written by a different
|

9P-client.

.SS Basic window management
|
||||
Running a raw
|
||||
.BR wmiiwm
|
||||
process without the
|
||||
.BR wmii (1)
|
||||
script provides basic window management capabilities already. However it is
|
||||
necessary to control the window manager remotely through its filesystem
|
||||
interface, to use it effectively. By default it is only usable with the mouse
|
||||
and you need to do
|
||||
.BR wmiir (1)
|
||||
calls to kill clients, if they don't provide a way to be closed nicely.
|
||||
script, provides basic window management capabilities already. However to use
|
||||
it effectively, remote control through its filesystem interface is necessary.
|
||||
By default it is only usable with the mouse in conjunction with the
|
||||
.I Mod1 (Alt)
|
||||
modifier key. Other interactions like customizing the style, killing or
|
||||
retagging clients, or grabbing keys cannot be achieved without accessing the
|
||||
filesystem.
|
||||
.P
|
||||
The filesystem can be accessed through connecting to the
|
||||
.I address
|
||||
of
|
||||
.BR wmiiwm
|
||||
with any 9P-capable client, like
|
||||
.BR wmiir (1).
|

.SS File system
|
||||
If you feel the need to change the default configuration, then customize (as
|
||||
described above) the
|
||||
.B wmiirc
|
||||
action. This action is executed at the end of the
|
||||
.BR wmii (1)
|
||||
script and does all the work of setting up the window manager, the key
|
||||
bindings, the bar labels, etc.
|
||||
The
|
||||
.BR wmiiwm
|
||||
filesystem is designed with simplicity and clarity in mind. It consists of
|
||||
logical namespaces which represent its internal state and data structure in a
|
||||
straight-forward way.
