do you guys ever get the hankering to try wayland, though?
<
bqv[m]>
i mean i can't imagine switching from exwm
<
bqv[m]>
but i also want to use wayland
cole-h has quit [Quit: Goodbye]

I feel exactly the inverse :D
<
qyliss>
I'd love to try exwm, but can't imagine going back to X11
<
ldlework>
from a user perspective all i know is i run qtile as my window manager, and i have extended that quite a lot
<
ldlework>
i never think about X11 so that's why my answer is no to whether a hankering ever takes place
<
qyliss>
I think about X11 every time I see somebody else struggling with multiple monitors :P
<
bqv[m]>
wayland just seems so much cleaner
<
bqv[m]>
and it has xwayland so it's not even a breaking change, the only problem is the window managers
<
bqv[m]>
and nobody wants to write a wayland compositor for emacs
<
bqv[m]>
(would it really be so hard?)
<
ldlework>
why not?
<
ldlework>
bqv[m]: give it a go
<
qyliss>
Need Wayland support in Emacs first, probably :P
<
bqv[m]>
wait, surely emacs supports it, it's using a gtk toolkit by default
<
qyliss>
Oh, no no no no
<
qyliss>
upstream Emacs was the only application I use that used XWayland.
<
bqv[m]>
oh my lord

Most of them aren't IIRC
<
qyliss>
But yeah, some of them.
<
qyliss>
I've been fairly happily running that for a while
<
qyliss>
And it is getting there
<
bqv[m]>
but they don't want to do that, because dynamic modules are "not supported"?
<
bqv[m]>
pretty sure they are though
<
bqv[m]>
between that emacs fork, and wlroots, i'm pretty sure something could work
<
bqv[m]>
i don't wanna start Yet Another Project that i just never finish
<
bqv[m]>
i have a great name for it
<
bqv[m]>
it's like weston, but for emacs
<
alexarice[m]>
qyliss: How usable is that "fixed" version of emacs?
<
qyliss>
I use it all day every day
<
qyliss>
There are occasionally small bugs to do with resizing or whatever
<
qyliss>
But very rarely
<
alexarice[m]>
thanks, I might give it a try

I'd switch to wayland in a heartbeat if I could get the same user experience as EXWM
<
xantoz>
adisbladis: just get started writing your own compositor :P
<
adisbladis>
xantoz: It's not like I already have enough things to do or anything...
<
xantoz>
adisbladis: no, no. not at all :D
<
xantoz>
basically we'd need to turn emacs into a wayland compositor. might already be possible even though it only has an X11 backend?
<
xantoz>
would need a native backend to be truly useful, however
<
bqv[m]>
normal-top-level-add-subdirs-to-load-path is my favourite function name
{^_^} has joined #nixos-emacs
<
xantoz>
or maybe, eventually, there will come some highly programmable compositor that can be controleld via IPC, reinventing X11
<
xantoz>
or well, in part
<
xantoz>
would be really nice to see a compositor where the window management is not integral to the compositor itself

hello, guys!
<
ratsclub>
how are you doing?
<
ratsclub>
may any of you guys can help me with a error I'm facing with services.emacs?
<
ratsclub>
I can't make my emacs start as a service
<
ratsclub>
It always tells me that emacs.service does not exist
