spawn_cwd

Description

Spawns programs from currently focused client's working directory. See this blog post for more information.

Currently the patch does not spawn into the cwd when the path to the working directory is 15 characters of length. For example spawning a new shell from a directory called ~/abcdefghijklm will open the shell in the home directory instead. This happens because the cwd to open is taken from the dwm status which gets truncated at a certain depth using ellipses (.../path/to/long/dir/name).
