mainmon
Description
By default, the contents of the status bar are shown on the selected monitor. This can be an annoyance in a couple of scenarios:
- If you have a vertical monitor, it might not be possible to see the entire status bar on it.
- If you use your computer in public (i.e. using a projector), you might not want others to see the contents of the status bar.
This patch adds a configurable mainmon option to the config.def.h which
defines the monitor where the status bar is shown. It no longer follows
focus.
