=head1 NAME 

wmii.lua - WMII event-loop methods in lua

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    require "wmii"

    -- Write something to the wmii filesystem, in this case a key event.
    wmii.write ("/event", "Key Mod1-j")

    -- Set your wmii /ctl parameters
    wmii.set_ctl({
        font = '....'
    })

    -- Configure wmii.lua parameters
    wmii.set_conf ({
        xterm = 'x-terminal-emulator'
    })

    -- Now start the event loop
    wmii.run_event_loop()

=head1 DESCRIPTION

wmii.lua provides methods for replacing the stock sh-based wmiirc shipped with
wmii 3.6 and newer with a lua-based event loop.

It should be used by your wmiirc

handler is added for any widget event that currently has a widget registered
for it.

Valid widget events are currently

        RightBarMouseDown <buttonnumber> <widgetname>

the "Click" event is sent on mouseup.

The callbacks are given only the button number as their argument, to avoid the

-- CLIENT HANDLING
-- ========================================================================

--[[
-- Notes on client tracking
--
-- When a client is created wmii sends us a CreateClient message, and
-- we in turn create a 'client' object and store it in the 'clients'
-- table indexed by the client's ID.
--
-- Each client object stores the following:
--   .xid   - the X client ID
--   .pid   - the process ID
--   .prog  - program object representing the process
--
-- The client and program objects track the following modes for each program:
--
--   raw mode:
--      - for each client window
--      - Mod4-space toggles the state between normal and raw
--      - Mod1-f raw also toggles the state
--      - in raw mode all input goes to the client, except for Mod4-space
--      - a focused client with raw mode enabled is put into raw mode
--
--   suspend mode:
--      - for each program
--      - Mod1-f suspend toggles the state for current client's program
--      - a focused client, whose program was previous suspended is resumed
--      - an unfocused client, with suspend enabled, will be suspended
--      - suspend/resume is done by sending the STOP/CONT signals to the PID
