This is a fork of the awesome window manager version 4.2 modified to add XDamage support to the lua API. The changes are based on a patched version of awesome version 3.4.3 released by Amazon Inc / Lab126.
The original awesome README file has been moved to README.md.orig
Usage
In your /etc/xdg/awesome/rc.lua
file you can connect to the damage signals for client and screen like so:
client.connect_signal("damage", function(client, area)
-- do stuff
end)
screen.connect_signal("damage", function(screen, area)
-- do stuff
end)
The area
object properties define the damaged area:
area.x
area.y
area.width
area.height
ToDo
xcb_damage_subtract
should probably only be called after all connected functions have been run and it might be useful if the signal function return values could determine whether or not xcb_damage_subtract
gets called at all.
