01:24 <jmcantrell> baltazar: if that were the case, is there any way to verify this or to affect the state after it launches?

03:42 <dnkl> jmcantrell: "foot sh -c 'sleep 1; vim"

03:42 <dnkl> if that works, the issue is vim isn't handling the resizes that happens when foot is launched in Sway

05:21 <beerman> i am using sway as well, if that helps

05:25 <dnkl> it's a timing issue mostly, but Sway does send unnecessary configure events when the application starts up. This increases the chance of it happening, compared to other compositors

05:26 <dnkl> but doesn't mean it always happens

05:30 <dnkl> but just to make it clear - the issue is, most likely, that vim (and many other applications) have a window of time between reading the initial window size, and registering the event handler that listens to runtime window size changes.

05:30 <dnkl> size changes within that window of time will not be seen by vim
