patch set compatible with dwm-6.2 (20190203)

Extra stuff added to vanilla dwm:

additional layouts
tag
bar
other
this patch is the reason libxft-bgra is required!

dwm-fix_color_fonts-6.2.diff - support utf-8 colored emoji characters in fonts.

Installation

After making any config changes that you want, but make, sudo make install it.

You must have libxft-bgra installed until the libxft upstream is fixed.

This build of dwm does not block color emoji in the status/info bar, so you must install libxft-bgra from the AUR, which fixes a libxft color emoji rendering problem, otherwise dwm will crash upon trying to render one. Hopefully this fix will be in all libxft soon enough.

Configuration

After make command config.h file will be generated, based from config.def.h.
You will definitely need to remap the keys because I'm using the colemak, not qwerty layout.
Edit default variable values in config.h.

Make a backup of your config.h before make clean, as by default it removes config.h as well.
sudo make install to apply config changes, and press (super+shift+esc to restart dwm)

About configuration structure

patch/-- all dirs except patch/include/ dir, contain .diff files.
patch/include/-- there is some patch specific .[c|h] files with recognizable patch name.
patch/include/config/-- parts of config code. So, if you want to edit keyboard keys - edit them in keys.h etc.

include.[c|h] -- includes all separate patch specific files. Those files contain separate patch specific functions. include.c & include.h -- the files themselves are the only files that is included inside dwm.c.

This makes dwm.c more readable, and .diff files contain only changes that directly affect the main code.

About .diff patch files included inside patch/ dir

Almost all patches contain changes and are not original, many .diff files are merged because the same parts of the files are being edited.

That is why I have included links to the original patch pages to make it easier to find them.

If you keep the original patching order and apply the command patch -p1 -f -R in reverse order to each.
The files will revert to their original state, without failed hunks.

Do not forget to remove from include.c & include.h patch specific files for patches that you are reversed,
and update config files in patch/include/config/, as they are not affected by .diff files.
