Window matches. by Monkiboi
This file is pretty straight forward and allows you to have different borders depending on the application or title displayed.
USE_BORDER_FOR_CLIENT_WITH_TITLE("WINDOW_TITLE", "BORDER NAME")
The WINDOW_TITLE is simply the name an application shows on the border i.e.
USE_BORDER_FOR_CLIENT_WITH_TITLE("The GIMP", "PAGER_LEFT") or
USE_BORDER_FOR_CLIENT_WITH_TITLE("Eterm-0.9", "PAGER_LEFT")
Wildcards (*) are also allowed where part of the name may change as the content of the window changes
USE_BORDER_FOR_CLIENT_WITH_TITLE("DOX:*", "PAGER_RIGHT")
Window classes may also be specified as in:
USE_BORDER_FOR_CLIENT_WITH_CLASS(CLASS, BORDER_NAME)
A windows "class" may be found using by typing "xprop" into a terminal and then clicking on the window whose class you need to know. It should show as WM_CLASS. I'm a little vague here as I've never bothered to set borders with classes.
