useless gap
Description
For aesthetic purposes, this patch:
- adds "useless gaps" around windows
- removes everything (gaps and borders) when in monocle mode for aesthetic purpose.
The size of the gap is configured in config.h:
static const unsigned int gappx = 6; /* gap pixel between windows */
Example
No gaps:
+-----------------+-------+
| | |
| | |
| | |
| +-------|
| | |
| | |
| | |
+-----------------+-------+
With gaps around windows:
+---------------------------+
|+----------------++-------+|
|| || ||
|| || ||
|| || ||
|| |+-------+|
|| |+-------+|
|| || ||
|| || ||
|| || ||
|+----------------++-------+|
+---------------------------+
NB: there are some alternatives in the patches section, adding gaps between windows, but not between windows and the screen borders, only in the default tile mode...
