leon-p: add geometry 🙏
<p00f1>
although I looked into this and didn't find anything in the toplevel protocol
<leon-p>
geometry isn't advertised via any protocol
<leon-p>
for good reasons

even looking at X11, geometry is only ever used for weird hacks for use cases that I'd rather see solved correctly
<p00f1>
i just want to feed the geometry of the focused window to grim
<p00f1>
to screenshot the current window
<leon-p>
exactly what I am saying though. That's a hack. The proper solution would be a dedicated protocol to copy the buffer of a window directly
* tleydxdy[m]
expect people will start taking screenshot of apps just to get their geometry
<Nosrep>
i love geometry! i love geometry! i love geometry!
<ifreund>
tleydxdy[m]: that will only give you width/height, not x/y
<plumeus>
take a screenshot of the entire screen and then use some image manipulation software to check x/y
<tleydxdy[m]>
haha yeah just what I was gonna say
<ifreund>
thanks, I hate it
<plumeus>
Just need something like ChatGPT to automate the process /s
<leon-p>
FWIW, lswt will print whatever information it gets from the protocols, but that's with a big "please don't use this for weird hacks, thanks" sign
