06:16 <LarstiQ> (nr1er: with wlopm)

08:09 <dnkl> I see text-input landed in master (and next-wlroots). Nice!

08:19 <TheAnachron> interesting, what does it do though? (sorry for this noob question)

08:19 <TheAnachron> I read https://wayland.app/protocols/input-method-unstable-v1 but that still doens't answer my question: What is this useful for?

08:48 <novakane> TheAnachron: it mostly used to insert CJK characters with a combination of keys, like if you want to write in Korean with a qwerty keyboard

08:51 <TheAnachron> ah, very nice and will allow broad usage of river in the future.

08:52 <TheAnachron> thanks for explaining it to me, novakane!

14:01 <Guest51> Hey guys, I just installed river and I am loving it so far. What status bar are you guys using with river?

14:08 <leon-p> Guest51: we have a page for recommended software at the wiki

14:08 <leon-p> https://github.com/riverwm/river/wiki/Recommended-Software

14:20 <LarstiQ> personally I use waybar because it was the first thing that I tried that worked sufficiently well

14:27 <nr1cer> how can i setup swayidle with dpms off thing

14:29 <TheAnachron> I use a lemonbar like bar: https://git.sr.ht/~novakane/zelbar

14:31 <LarstiQ> nr1cer: e.g. ... timeout 600 'wlopm --off *' resume 'wlopm --on *' ...

16:11 <nr1cer> LarstiQ: thx, also can i start my swayidle script like this in init? riverctl spawn "~/.config/river/idle.sh"

22:01 <tealtydes> Hi all. Apologies for the green question, but is anyone aware of a way of maintaining the position of the -main-location with rivertile?

22:03 <tealtydes> I can achieve the behavior I want by manually running riverctl swap previous in the main tile, though I can not seem to automate this within my config.

22:03 <leon-p> tealtydes: can you expand on that a bit? I am not sure I understand what you want to achieve

22:05 <tealtydes> i would like for the first view opened to maintain it's position & be locked in place

22:09 <tealtydes> I more often work this way having say my editor open in the main position & would prefer to opt in having the newly opened term take the place of the main.

22:09 <tealtydes> At the moment, every time I open a new tile it takes the main position while the previous main gets moved to the end of the stack.

22:16 <leon-p> you can have new windows attach at the bottom of the stack instead

22:16 <leon-p> search for 'attach-mode' in the man page

22:18 <tealtydes> this is absolutely my intention. thank you Leon.

22:20 <tealtydes> oh wow. at the top of the config section. I'm not sure how I missed that. definetely makes more sense than swapping on every launch.
