Ragnar build + EWMH status bars compliance by h8d13 · Pull Request #69 · cococry/ragnar

h8d13 · 2026-07-23T14:52:03Z

src/config.c:317 in replaceplaceholder:

According to C23 needs to be:

ins = (char*)strstr(str, placeholder);

Meanwhile the loop bellow it I think might have leaks. replaceplaceholder mallocs, the result is assigned to modifiers and never freed. Adapted in same first commit.

Misc:

Fixed .gitignore pattern

Added a small note to readme about default apps that ragnar expects, without them you are kind of stuck, stepbro

Tests: in a fresh Archlinux box :)

 arch=('x86_64')

you'd have to edit these back to your repo; was needed for testing only on a fresh box.

Sorry about touching other files lmao saw the pkgbuild wasn't finished and couldn't resist... + bonus it was not honoring arch's default flags (also fixed).

Aims at: #53 + instructions in readme for #51

Fully working now even handles events from polybar EWMH compliant

Sorry bout the large blast radius. Perhaps you can cherry pick what you want, or something. I tried to add some comments here so that could help.

A lot of LoC changes where trailing white spaces too.
