Helm for EXWM, the Emacs X Window Manager.
Helm-EXWM defines two new sources: one for a customizable selection of EXWM
buffers, one for the rest of Emacs buffers. This allows to effectively separate
Emacs buffers from EXWM buffers in helm-mini
.
- Run
helm-exwm
to spawn a Helm session of all EXWM buffers. - Call
(helm-exwm FILTER)
to spawn a Helm session of all EXWM buffers for which the FILTER function returns non-nil. See the documentation string ofhelm-exwm
for an example. - To define a source of filtered EXWM buffers, use
(setq my-helm-exwm-source (helm-exwm-build-source FILTER))
. - Enable follow-mode with
(add-to-list 'helm-source-names-using-follow "EXWM buffers")
.
Helm-EXWM also provides the helm-exwm-switch
helper function for switching to
EXWM-supported programs. It uses Helm to switch between the windows owned by
one or several specific programs.
Helm-EXWM provides two default switchers for browse-url-generic-program
. See
helm-exwm-switch-browser
and helm-exwm-switch-browser-other-window
. Those
switchers are most useful when bound to global keys.
