Swallow everything spawned with the terminal on focus

Swallow everything spawned with the terminal on focus Steps to reproduce:

1. Open terminal (i am using st)
2. spawn anything using sxhd (example : pcmanfm)
3. pcmanfm gets swallowed by the terminal

if the terminal is not focused it works fine or is it part of the feature

Not entirely sure what your issue is, but if you are refering to programs that do not originate from the terminal (such as from dmenu) then this is a known byproduct of how the script works. It can be circumvented by temporaraly disabling the script while spawning the window (an example using dmenu_run exists in the examples directory)

You can create a script in your path that looks something like this:

File: sxhkd_noswallow

#!/bin/sh
killall bspswallow
eval "$1" >/dev/null
sleep 2
bspswallow &

And then you call your programs in your sxhkdrc like this:

ctrl + alt + f
       sxhkd_noswallow firefox

Thank you very much iosevka-soz. JopStro should probably add this this script inside the script folder
