Support for clients across all tags #6

Open iorbitearth opened 9 years ago

iorbitearth commented 9 years ago

I gave alttab a try using awmtt, and it seems client switching is only supported for clients on the current tag. For my general use, mod4+j/k is most efficient for this.

Is there any interest in adding an option to support clients across multiple tags? Or am I missing an existing option?

Hi Jake,

I am not working on this project anymore, so I'm not going to invest time in supporting this feature (I'm not even runming awesome anymore). It should however be relatively easy to implement. If you look at the code, you'll see a table being constructed that holds only the clients from the current tag. You can expand this by adding all clients instead.

I don't know if awesome will switch tags automatically when you focus a client on a different tag. If it does, you're done. If not, this has to be done explicitly when a client has been selected.

Thanks! When I have time myself I'll try adding the feature. If it seems functional and clean I'll submit a pull request.
