Xmonad support #13

Any way xmonad support could be implemented?

andreykaere commented 6 months ago

I don't know if there is an ipc for xmonad, that can be implemented in Rust. And I don't think that I can implement functionality of "hiding" the icon, when window becomes fullscreen. Technically, this matters only for transparent windows, so, probably not a big deal. And the rest of functionality can be implemented using EWMH, I believe.

I just don't see the big reason to do it right now, as I am not sure of how much Polybar suits xmonad in general and if there is any need for it. However, as mentioned, ixwindow is not tied up to polybar one bit, but still, I am not sure of how much public needs this.

Feel free to implement it yourself and open corresponding PR :)
