# Maomaowm

This project is developed based on `dwl(0.5)` , 
adding many operation that supported in hyprland and a hyprland-like keybinds,
niri-like scroll layout and sway-like scratchpad.
See below for more features.

# separate window layout for each workspace(tags), with separate workspace parameters
## support layout
- tile(master)
- scroller
- monocle
- grid
- dwindle
- spiral

# window open rules
## options
- appid: type-string if match it or title, the rule match   
- title: type-string if match it or appid, the rule match  
- tags: type-num(1-9) which tags to open the window
- isfloating: type-num(0 or 1) 
- isfullscreen: type-num(0 or 1)
- scroller_proportion: type-float(0.1-1.0)
- animation_type : type-string(zoom,slide)
- isnoborder : type-num(0 or 1)
- monitor  : type-num(0-99999)
- width : type-num(0-9999)
- height : type-num(0-9999)

# some special feature
- hycov like overview
- foreign-toplevel support(dunst,waybar wlr taskbar)
- minimize window to waybar(like hych)
- sway scratchpad support (minimize window to scratchpad)
- window pin mode support
- text-input-v2/v3 for fcitx5
- window move/open animaition
- workspace switch animaition
- fade in animation
- alt-tab switch window like gnome
- niri like scroller layout
- fadeout animation

```


# config
you can use `MAOMAOCONFIG` env to set the config-folder-path and the autostart-folder-patch
like `MAOMAOCONFIG=/home/xxx/maomao`

- the only default keybinds is ctrl+alt+[F1-F12] to change tty

- the default config path is `~/.config/maomao/config.conf`

- the default autostart path is `~/.config/maomao/autostart.sh`

- the fallback config path is in `/etc/maomao/config.conf`, you can find the default config here

# keybinds notice

All mod keys(alt,ctrl,shift,super) are case insensitive, in addition to other key names are case sensitive, the name follows the xkb standard name, you can use the `xev` command to get the key name of the key you want, note that if your mod key contains the shift key, then it may not be the key name displayed on the keyboard. Real name Refer to the name displayed in the `xev` command.

for example:

### this is wrong:
```
bind=alt+shift,2,quit
```

### this is right:
```
bind=alt+shift,at,quit
```

because your keybinds contain shift, the `2` cover to `at`
