This dwm 6.2 (58de66, 2020-04-22) side project has a different take on dwm patching. It uses preprocessor directives to decide whether or not to include a patch during build time. Essentially this means that this build, for better or worse, contains both the patched _and_ the original code. The aim being that you can select which patches to include and the build will contain that code and nothing more.

For example to include the `alpha` patch then you would only need to flip this setting from 0 to 1 in [patches.h ](https://github.com/bakkeby/dwm-flexipatch/blob/master/patches.def.h ):
2019-09-04 22:32:39 +00:00
```c
#define ALPHA_PATCH 1
```
2019-09-30 21:52:51 +00:00
So if you have ever been curious about trying out dwm, but have been discouraged by manual patching, then this may be a good starting point to see what a "fully fledged" dwm can look like. Want to try out the `pertag` patch? Just flip a config and recompile. Once you have found out what works for you and what doesn't then you should be in a better position to choose patches should you want to start patching from scratch.

Alternatively if you have found the patches you want, but don't want the rest of the flexipatch entanglement on your plate then you may want to have a look at [flexipatch-finalizer ](https://github.com/bakkeby/flexipatch-finalizer ); a custom pre-processor tool that removes all the unused flexipatch code leaving you with a build that contains the patches you selected.

[dwm][PATCH] Multiple scratchpads
This patch enables multiple scratchpads, each with one assigned window.
This enables the same scratchpad workflow that you have in i3.
Scratchpads are implemented as special tags, whose mask does not
apply to new spawned windows. To assign a window to a scratchpad you
have to set up a rule, as you do with regular tags.
Windows tagged with scratchpad tags can be set floating or not in the
rules array. Most users would probably want them floating (i3 style),
but having them tiled does also perfectly work and might fit better the
DWM approach. In case they are set floating, the patch moves them to the
center of the screen whenever the are shown. The patch can easily be
modified to make this last feature configurable in the rules array (see
the center patch).
The togglescratch function, borrowed from the previous scratchpad patch
and slightly modified, can be used to spawn a registered scratchpad
process or toggle its view. This function looks for a window tagged on
the selected scratchpad. If it is found its view is toggled. If it is
not found the corresponding registered command is spawned. The
config.def.h shows three examples of its use to spawn a terminal in the
first scratchpad tag, a second terminal running ranger on the second
scratchpad tag and the keepassxc application to manage passwords on a
third scratchpad tag.
If you prefer to spawn your scratchpad applications from the startup
script, you might opt for binding keys to toggleview instead, as
scratchpads are just special tags (you may even extend the TAGKEYS macro
to generalize the key bindings).

2019-09-06 22:03:04 +00:00
- [focusonnetactive ](https://dwm.suckless.org/patches/focusonnetactive/ )

- sometimes dwm crashes when it cannot render some glyphs in window titles (usually emoji)
- this patch is essentially a hack to ignore any errors when drawing text on the status bar and may be removed if a more appropriate solution comes up
