The following change from 2013-02-09 breaks shell completion for me:
hunk ./XMonad/Prompt/Shell.hs 65
+ commandToComplete _ c = c
It seems to be passing the entire string into compgen in order to get the file completions, but it should only pass the last word. I propose reverting this change. Comments are appreciated.
This makes a breakage due to missing patches in core a bit more obvious.
Previously you would have a build failure regarding some missing identifiers
(def re-exported by XMonad from Data.Default), while after applying this patch
it will be clear that xmonad-core needs to be updated.
The issue was that window titles, such as those set by, for example a browser,
could set the window title to display something like
<action=malicious shell command>normal title</action>
Which could be executed by xmobar (or dzen).
This adds a ppTitleSanitize which does the above functions. This way when users
override ppTitle, the benefits are not lost.
Thanks to Raúl Benencia and Joachim Breitner for bringing this to my attention.
Hooks.DynamicBars was previously using an MVar and the unsafePerformIO hack (
http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Top_level_mutable_state ) to store bar
state. Since ExtensibleState exists to solve these sorts of problems, I've
switched the file over to use unsafePerformIO instead.
Some functions' types had to be changed to allow access to XState, but the
public API is unchanged.
This module provides a way to link certain workspaces in a multihead setup.
That way, when switching to the first one the other heads display the linked
workspaces.
modWorkspace already was capable of modifying the layout with an arbitrary
layout -> layout function, but its original type restricted it such that it
could only apply a single LayoutModifier; this was often inconvenient, as for
example it was not possible simply to compose LayoutModifiers for use with
modWorkspace.
This patch also reimplements onWorkspaces in terms of modWorkspaces, since with
the latter's less restrictive type this is now possible.
