currently clients that set the input field of WM_HINTS to true
(c->neverfocus) will never be updated as _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW even
when they are focused. according to the ICCCM [0] the input
field of WM_HINTS tells the WM to either use or not use
XSetInputFocus(), it shouldn't have any relation to
_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW. EWMH spec [1] also does not mention any
relationship between the two.
this issue was noticed when launching games via steam/proton and
noticing that _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW was always wrong/stale (i.e not
updated to the game window).
for reference I've looked at bspwm [2] and it also seems to set
_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW regardless of whether the client has WM_HINTS
input true or not.

dwm - dynamic window manager
============================
dwm is an extremely fast, small, and dynamic window manager for X.
Requirements
------------
In order to build dwm you need the Xlib header files.
Installation
------------
Edit config.mk to match your local setup (dwm is installed into
the /usr/local namespace by default).
Afterwards enter the following command to build and install dwm (if
necessary as root):
make clean install
Running dwm
-----------
Add the following line to your .xinitrc to start dwm using startx:
exec dwm
In order to connect dwm to a specific display, make sure that
the DISPLAY environment variable is set correctly, e.g.:
DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec dwm
(This will start dwm on display :1 of the host foo.bar.)
In order to display status info in the bar, you can do something
like this in your .xinitrc:
while xsetroot -name "`date` `uptime | sed 's/.*,//'`"
do
sleep 1
done &
exec dwm
Configuration
-------------
The configuration of dwm is done by creating a custom config.h
and (re)compiling the source code.
