KDE window swallowing
is there anyway to get window swallowing in KDE like in the dwm swallowing patch? basically window swallowing is one window replacing another, for example if i start a graphical program like mpv from the terminal, the mpv window will replace the terminal window until i close out of mpv. i tried using the devour script (https://github.com/salman-abedin/devour) but it doesn't work that well in a floating window manager because windows start at different sizes. is there a way to get this functionality from KDE itself?

Dynamic swallow with systray patch
Hello! I am trying to apply dynamic swallow and systray patches at the same time, but there is a serious conflict in logic which I am not sure how to resolve correctly. Dynamic swallow adds swallow handling to destroynotify() and unmapnotify() using it's own wintoclient2, whereas systray uses default dwm logic with wintoclient. Dumbest way to fix that is to simply add original if ((c = wintoclient(ev->window))) to dynamic swallow logic, but it seems as not very efficient solution. So I wonder, what would be the right approach to make it work? Thank you in advance.

Swallow Patch doesn't work with urxvtc/urxvtd [DWM + Flexipatch]
I would assume that the dynamicswallow would work. As far as I understand it is a manual swallower (I guess similar to manual tiling window managers) where you need to make decisions about which windows to swallow and when.

Can't make my file manager swallow!
It may be that the dynamicswallow patch will allow you to do this but as far as I understood it you need to make a conscious choice about when to swallow and not using this patch.
