Can't resize windows with keyboard #111

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Hi!
I'm surprised to be unable to resize windows with the keyboard in wmii.
Maybe I miss something?

 I really enjoy this WM, and I also want to thanks developpers for this by
this post.

You can, but there are no key bindings by default. See this thread:

There's an sh version of that snippet a bit farther down. The next snapshot will
probably include something like it by default.

Thanks a lot!  But, how can I use it? Shall I copy this code in the wmiirc?
I beg your pardon for my bad english, if I had done any mistakes...

I simply use this in wmiirc to resize windows on the down and right edge:
        Key $MODKEY-Control-$LEFT
                wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl grow sel sel right -1
        Key $MODKEY-Control-$RIGHT
                wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl grow sel sel right 1
        Key $MODKEY-Control-$DOWN
                wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl grow sel sel down 1
        Key $MODKEY-Control-$UP
                wmiir xwrite /tag/sel/ctl grow sel sel down -1

This is a bit more restricted than the "grow mode" suggested by Kris. But if you
remember that you resize on the right and bottom edge of a client, this works 
very
fine for me. For example if you want to resize at the left edge, just switch to 
the
client left of the selected before resizing. All in all not more (in most cases 
less)
keypresses than with the "grow mode".

Hi, buddy on the 4th floor, I used your config in my local_wmiirc, the thing 
turns out when I press Alt(my mod key) + control + UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT. I got 
ABCD stuff on my screen, how to solve that?
