gridall

Description

This patch introduces two new functions:

  1. One to view all windows across all tags using the gaplessgrid layout.

  2. Another to view the selected window in its original tag using the monocle layout.

The idea is to press a shortcut (e.g., Mod+g) to display all windows, then after selecting one, press another shortcut (e.g., Mod+r) to jump to that window's tag and focus on it.

This patch depends on two other patches: gaplessgrid and winview.

If you already have the other two patches added to your dwm build, you can simply apply dwm-gridall-6.5.diff. If not, I've also created a combined patch that includes winview, gaplessgrid, and gridall dwm-winview-gaplessgrid-gridall-6.5.diff.

Additionally, this patch serves as an example of how to combine two functions under a single shortcut, allowing users to further customize their dwm setup.

Note: Sometimes a window may get "lost" in one of the tags. This patch helps you quickly find and focus on it without having to move it or change its tag.
