5 * dynamic window manager is designed like any other X client as well. It is
6 * driven through handling X events. In contrast to other X clients, a window
7 * manager selects for SubstructureRedirectMask on the root window, to receive
8 * events about window (dis-)appearance. Only one X connection at a time is
9 * allowed to select for this event mask.
10 *
11 * Calls to fetch an X event from the event queue are blocking. Due reading
12 * status text from standard input, a select-driven main loop has been
13 * implemented which selects for reads on the X connection and STDIN_FILENO to
14 * handle all data smoothly. The event handlers of dwm are organized in an
15 * array which is accessed whenever a new event has been fetched. This allows
16 * event dispatching in O(1) time.
17 *
18 * Each child of the root window is called a client, except windows which have
19 * set the override_redirect flag. Clients are organized in a global
20 * doubly-linked client list, the focus history is remembered through a global
21 * stack list. Each client contains an array of Bools of the same size as the
22 * global tags array to indicate the tags of a client. For each client dwm
23 * creates a small title window, which is resized whenever the (_NET_)WM_NAME
24 * properties are updated or the client is moved/resized.
25 *
26 * Keys and tagging rules are organized as arrays and defined in the config.h
27 * file. These arrays are kept static in event.o and tag.o respectively,
28 * because no other part of dwm needs access to them. The current mode is
29 * represented by the arrange function pointer, which wether points to dofloat
30 * or dotile.
31 *
32 * To understand everything else, start reading main.c:main().
