#+begin_src emacs-lisp So, Im finally slowly getting back to EXWM. I tried it a couple of
(defvar phundrak/with-exwm (and (eq window-system 'x) years ago, but that was with the SpacemacsOS layer on Spacemacs, on a
(seq-contains command-line-args "--use-exwm"))) laptop which got accidentaly formatted before I could save my config
and all… So it got me some time to come back. Im still a bit worried
about Emacs being single threaded, so if I get one blocking function
blocking Emacs, my whole desktop will hang, but for now I havent had
this issue.
First, I need to install the /X protocol Emacs Lisp Bindings/. It
doesnt seem to be available in any repo, so Ill install it directly
from Git.

:repo "ch11ng/exwm") Now we come to the plat de résistance. Like with ~xelb~, Im using its
:custom Git source to install it to make sure I get the right version --- the
(use-dialog-box nil "Disable dialog boxes since they are unusable in EXWM") version available on the GNU ELPA is from the same source, true, but I
(exwm-input-line-mode-passthrough t "Pass all keypresses to emacs in line mode.") dont know at which rate it is updated. And more packages down the
:init line will depend on this Git repository, so I might as well just clone
(require 'exwm-config) it right now.

(general-define-key As you can see, in the ~:config~ secion I added to two hooks functions
so buffers are accurately renamed. While the average X window will
simply get the name of the current X window, I want Firefox and
Qutebrowser to be prefixed with the name of the browser. Actually, all
these will be renamed this way:
#+name: exwm-renamed-buffers-list

As you can see below, in the ~:config~ section I added two advices and one
hook in order to correctly integrate evil with EXWM. When Im in an X
window, I want to be in insert-mode so I can type however I want.
However, when I exit one, I want to default back to normal-mode.
#+name: exwm-advices-evil
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :tangle no
(add-hook 'exwm-manage-finish-hook (lambda () (call-interactively #'exwm-input-release-keyboard)))

(advice-add #'exwm-input-release-keyboard :after (lambda (&optional id) (evil-insert-state)))
#+end_src
Secondly, I add ~i~, ~C-SPC~, and ~M-m~ as exwm prefix keys so they arent
sent directly to the X windows but caught by Emacs (and EXWM). Ill
use the ~i~ key in normal-mode to enter ~insert-mode~ and have Emacs
release the keyboard so the X window can grab it. ~s-I~ will also toggle
between releasing to and grabing the keyboard from X windows.
~s-<escape>~ will be only useful for grabing back the keyboard, a bit
like exiting the insert state from evil back to the normal state.

As stated a couple of times in my different configuration files, Im
using the bépo layout, which means the default keys in the number row
are laid as follow:

With this, we can create keybinds for going or sending X windows to
workspaces 0 to 9.
