Purpose of `package.json` file and its content?
Closed this issue · 5 comments
I am currently doing some work with this project and I am curious if package.json file is still needed and valid. It is very old and seems kinda outdated (eg. nowmc file is mentioned but it is no longer here). Is it ok to remove the package.json? I think Makefile is more than enough and if not I can just copy-and-edit its content to install.sh and uninstall.sh shell scripts
By the way, one more question. Is NoWM strictly for POSIX sh or can Bash'es extended syntax (for instance, [[ over [ is recommended) be used?

No, package.json is using for bpkg packaging

I just updated in commit 76a5557

nowm is currently strictly following the posix sh syntax, but will probably switch to bash at some point in the future
One more thing (I hope you will see this). Why is there select_focus function? Imo it is totally useless with pointer_focus available as it just duplicates its functionality but with mouse pressing (which is just hotkeys config that is even in examples). Can/should it be deleted?
Sorry for so many questions, I just don't want to mess badly with someone's code
Also idk what's the problem but nowm quit absolutely doesn't work. I mean, it does NOTHING. Manual xdotool getwindowfocus windowquit has the same result - window still alive, no errors, no questions, nothing. Can you please explain what it does and when it is needed?
Please consider create new issue instead of asking here
btw pointer_focus not work on some window (e.g sublime-text), that why I added select_focus
Also idk what's the problem but
nowm quitabsolutely doesn't work
Let's move to new issue
