Matt Mullenweg deactivates WordPress contributor accounts over alleged fork plans in c/wordpress
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

I really hope #ClassicPress gets more attention and more programmers will join the project. It's 1/3 the size, less complex and faster. It's the old WP but with improvements. Many translations are still missing. Some important WP plugins don't work properly. But it's an independent WP fork.

disable red workspace notification on i3wm startup (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

Today I was looking for a solution how to disable the urgency hint for programs which I automatically launch in my i3 config file on startup.

I have saved the layout of my workspace number 2 (see https://i3wm.org/docs/layout-saving.html for the docs) and in my i3 config I attach that layout to workspace number 2 and I also launch some programs (applications) there. Then I let i3-msg switch to workspace 1 so I see the wallpaper. But the launched programs on workspace 2 launch just after that (I guess a few milliseconds later) so they are not focused and i3 changes the workspace color to red, which is annoying because I have to switch to workspace 2 and back to workspace 1 to get rid of the red color.

Solution: put this Bash script to your i3 config folder, in my case the full path is ~/.config/i3/urgency_off.sh and make the file executable.

#!/bin/sh
# Disable urgency hint of all opened windows on i3wm startup.
# Add it to i3 config as exec.

sleep 2

for i in $(xdotool search --class .\*)
do
	xdotool set_window --urgency 0 $i
done

Then put this line at the end of your ~/.config/i3/config file:

exec --no-startup-id ~/.config/i3/urgency_off.sh

Make sure you have xdotool installed. On Debian-based systems you can install it simply with apt install xdotool. If you use Wayland instead of X you may need to use another tool.

Blender4 OS-Key middle-button emulation incompatibility with i3 in c/[email protected]

Thanks for sharing. So there is no option to change the Win key in Blender4, to use (for example) AltGr (right Alt) instead?

Window content shrinking in some GTK apps in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

What happens if you remove the gaps between windows? Just guessing, but maybe the bug simply takes the gap width and uses it for the inner padding? I don't use gaps at all and I've never experienced this issue. (Docs: https://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html#gaps)

i3wm: how to map numeric keys on keypad (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

This is a HOW TO, not a question :-)

Binding numeric keys (for example KP_1 or KP_0) is not as easy as it might seem. A simple bindsym $mod+KP_1 does NOT work in X11 (but maybe it works in Wayland?).

Solution

for example to define a key binding to switch to workspace 1 we can use: bindsym $mod+Mod2+KP_1 workspace number $ws1

Background info: Mod2 specifies the numlock key (although xev reports it's called Num_Lock with code 77). Mod2 is not a key to be pressed, it seems to be the numlock state, so +Mod2 means the keybinding is active with num_lock enabled.

silent error in keymap.json, key map not working (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

I noticed a strange silent error: when having a typo in keymap.json file, for example "ctlr-space" instead of "ctrl-space", the whole keymap is ignored and default key bindings are active instead. Why isn't there any error message? So pay attention to your keymap.json modifications!

SSH Remoting is Here! in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

AFAIK the glibc compatibility issues were related to very outdated glibc versions. IMHO almost nobody with an old distro (Debian 10 or similar) will be using a modern IDE. I'm using Debian stable (12) which has a much newer glibc than required for remote ssh to work. Sidenote: half a year ago Microsoft even didn't bother to inform its VS Code users that they were dropping support for old glibc when they updated their remote SSH extension :) I was one of many impacted users, because Amazon decided to use an outdated glibc in their weird Amazon Linux distro.

Best clipboard for i3wm in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

parcellite is a lightweight clipboard manager, I use it in i3. It has some useful features and supports basic key bindings. A more advanced one is xfce4-clipman (works standalone without Xfce, uses Gtk).

help with keybinding - open function description in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Someone already gave me the answer elsewhere. It is the "editor::Hover" action, this is the default keymap excerpt:

"context": "Editor",
    "bindings": {
      "ctrl-k ctrl-i": "editor::Hover",
...

I just had to remap it because I already use ctrl-k for something else.

Hi, could someone please help me with this: what is the keybinding to open those pop-up windows which show the function description? See my screenshot. In other editors it's sometimes called "code lense".

I've looked everywhere and I simply cannot find it (if I only knew how the action is called in the settings file...). I'm using a tiling window manager, so I don't want to use the mouse every time. Thanks.
