Needs to be killed manually if exiting the WM

FunctionalHacker opened this issue 5 years ago · comments

If I exit my WM, and even relogin and then start the WM back up again, flashfocus is not working anymore. I need to run killall flashfocus and then start the WM again (or run flashfocus manually) to get it working again.

I'm on arch linux + swaywm with the latest flashfocus-git from the AUR

@ReekyMarko Really sorry I never replied to this! I totally agree that this would be nice. My work isn't allowing much time for open source at the moment but I'd be more than happy to review a PR and/or give pointers.

@ReekyMarko I think setting flashfocus up as a systemd service should solve this - https://github.com/fennerm/flashfocus/wiki#systemd-config. Closing this out.
