EXWM
Emacs can run as a complete tiling window manager for X11.
Setup
Load the x11
module before loading this module.
Config
When exwm
1 first launches the init-hook
is executed, allowing us to define some custom logic inside of a hook. Display the time and date, and the battery information, if any is available. I add this here because when I'm running Emacs without exwm
1, information such as the batter and time is typically already available.
(defun dotfiles/init-hook () (exwm-workspace-switch-create 1) (setq display-time-and-date t) (display-battery-mode 1) (display-time-mode 1))
Display detection
Enable hot plugging by forcing a profile change with autorandr
.
(defun dotfiles/update-display () "Update the displays by forcing a change through autorandr." (dotfiles/run-in-background "autorandr --change --force"))
Window manager
Connect all of the custom hooks and configure the input keys, a custom layer for key captures when Emacs us running as a window manager. Enable randr
support, to function with autorandr
, and apply some default bindings.
(use-package exwm :when (window-system) :custom (exwm-workspace-show-all-buffers t) (exwm-input-prefix-keys '(?\M-x ?\C-g ?\C-\ )) (exwm-input-global-keys `(([?\s-r] . exwm-reset) ,@(mapcar (lambda (i) `(,(kbd (format "s-%d" i)) . (lambda () (interactive) (exwm-workspace-switch-create ,i)))) (number-sequence 1 9)))) :config (require 'exwm-randr) (exwm-randr-enable) (add-hook 'exwm-init-hook #'dotfiles/init-hook) (add-hook 'exwm-randr-screen-change-hook #'dotfiles/update-display) (add-hook 'exwm-update-class-hook (lambda () (exwm-workspace-rename-buffer exwm-class-name))) (dotfiles/update-display) (dotfiles/run-in-background "nitrogen --restore") ;; Update the wallpaper.
