Thanks for your anwsers and how do you want your text editor ?

Hi all,

I did not had time to thank you all for your answers on the thread
concerning LaTeX and typesetting systems.
I finally solved my issue, it was a problem with epstopdf and convert
from imagemagick.
When I have an eps picture with some dimensions,
=> on the computer at my work, convert conserve the dimensions of the
picture while epstopdf does not. It resizes the picture to A4 format.
=> At home my computer does exactly the contrary, epstopdf does
conserve dimensions while convert does not. It resizes the picture to
A4 format.
I use convert and epstopdf without arguments except the filenames, so
I don't why this behavior ! (Maybe cause I was stone or drunk or both
...)

$ convert mypic.eps mypic.pdf
$ epstopdf mypic.eps
On both PCs.

Maybe there is a difference between versions I don't know and I have
not searched deeper.
At home I have Archlinux and at work CentOS.

But anyway, the eps->pdf trick is not the main subject of my post.

I have seen on the suckless project ideas webpage that you wish to
have a "Yet another less sucking editor" (= YALSE ? or LSED ? or FALSE
? why not ?).

dwm classic multihead support?

Hi,

are you aware of anyone still using a classic multihead setup? (No Xinerama)

I wonder if it'd be worth the effort to support that as well, since we
got the Monitor structure now in dwm.

Kind regards,
Anselm

If your email client has the capability, you should be able to create
a filter which trashes emails containing the subject [wmii] though it
isn't foolproof and certainly won't catch the off-topic threads.  For
what it's worth, the dwm list is one of the quietest I've been
subscribed to so it shouldn't be too noisy even with the merger.

Got it.
Apparently, the ML is working very fine, thanks a lot !
Maybe there isn't any need for more tests?

Cheers, James

dmenu + xft

Attached is a patch adding xft support to dmenu 4.0.  I claim no
copyright as it is little more than mimicing patterns I found in
Alexander Polakov's 3.4 patch and Robert Manea's dzen xft support.  I
have attempted to follow the suckless paradigm as much as possible
(e.g. config.mk).  xft support is optional and when it is enabled it
does not remove classic x11 fonts (as Alexander Polakov's patch did).
An xft font specification is recognized by the presence of a "xft:"
prefix; anything else is treated as classic x11.

Other changes:

I removed support for a selected foreground color as dmenu never
actually used it.  This allowed the width of the help message to
remain unchanged when I added a -bh (bar height) option.  This option
is orthogonal to xft support.  Motivation for bar height is covered in
my recent "Some Gnome fit and finish work" posting to the xmonad mail
list.

Ideally I would like to see this patch included in dmenu so that in
time it can become part of main stream distributions.  If there is no
chance of that happening then what is the proper place at suckless.org
to post the patch?
