[hackers] [dwm][PATCH] Remove BUGS and TODO

From: Christopher Drelich <cd_AT_cdrakka.com>

It is not clear if BUGS and TODO are up-to-date, and if people are
already working on (or have solved these issues.) We also don't know
much about an individuals setup. There are much better methods of
keeping track of this information besides textfiles in the source
tree. Issue trackers, wikis, etc.. are all viable options.

It seems best to remove these files and discuss further options. It
might even be useful to find a place to talk about wanted patches
(Both thsoe that would and would not be included in the main code
base.)

-18:17 < Biolunar> when i change my resolution in dwm (to a smaller
one) and then back to the native, the top bar is not repainted. that's
since 5.7.2, in 5.6 it worked fine
-18:19 < Biolunar> is it just happening to me or a (known) bug?
-18:24 < Biolunar> and in addition, mplayers fullscreen is limited to
the small resolution after i changed it back to the native

-reproducible with xrandr -s but not with --output and --mode, strange

-yet another corner case:
-open a terminal, focus another monitor, but without moving the mouse
-pointer there
-if there is no client on the other monitor to get the focus, then the
-terminal will be unfocused but it will accept input

-starting emacs from dmenu in archlinux results in missing configure
of emacs, but mod1-space or mod1-shift-space fix this problem. this
problem is new and did not happen in 1.6 xorg servers

-voltaic reports this:
-
-When I use two monitors, one larger in resolution than the other, the
-bar is drawn using the smaller x-dimension on both screens. I think
-what's happening is that there are two bars drawn, but the short bar
-is always on top of the long bar such that I can't see the information
-under the short bar. If I switch to the small screen, hide the short
-bar, and then switch to the large screen, the long bar is drawn
-correctly.
-
-A similar problem occurs when I have started dwm on a small resolution
-monitor (laptop screen) and then I switch to a large external display.
-When I do this, the bar itself is drawn for the original smaller
-resolution, but the information to be printed on the bar is
-right-aligned for a longer bar. So what I see is a bar that has the
-right hand side of it cut-off. See attached screenshot.
-
-I am using standard options for xrandr such as --output VGA1 --auto, etc.
