This feature seems like a tabbed windows manager. It's great for coding and compiling.

I gave up, it’s full of invalid parameters error and crash. Thanks for your reply.

For people who have errors: X_Error BadMatch Invalid parameters, you can try to replace the tab win create parameters to:

m->tabwin = XCreateWindow(dpy, root, m->wx, m->ty, m->ww, th, 0, depth,
              InputOutput, visual,
              CWOverrideRedirect|CWBackPixel|CWBorderPixel|CWColormap|CWEventMask, &wa);

Exactly, this error is coming from the alpha patch. You must create a tab window like the status bar. For more detail please check out https://dwm.suckless.org/patches/alpha/dwm-alpha-20201019-61bb8b2.diff and search the keyword XCreateWindow at function updatebars(void).

Hope google can guide those people who have the same problem to this issue. There are lots of patches that are not compatible with the alpha patch. I have struggled with systray and alpha patch for a long time too.
