Bug Description

Hi,

by default window_open_frame is set to 'current' and I doen't touch this in my musca_start.

What happens?
I open an application, then I split my screen in two frames.
With focus on the used screen I open a new application.
This new app goes to the empty frame but from what I understood this should only happen when window_open_frame is set to 'empy'

musca -c 'show settings'
set border_focus Blue
set border_unfocus Dim Gray
set border_dedicate_focus Red
set border_dedicate_unfocus Dark Red
set border_catchall_focus Green
set border_catchall_unfocus Dark Green
set border_width 1
set frame_min_wh 100
set frame_resize 20
set startup .musca_start
set dmenu dmenu -i -b -nf '#aaaaaa' -nb '#222222' -sb '#535d6c' -sf '#ffffff' -fn 'terminus-10'
set switch_window sed 's/^/raise /' | $MUSCA -i
set switch_group sed 's/^/use /' | $MUSCA -i
set run_musca_command $MUSCA -i
set run_shell_command sed 's/^/exec /' | $MUSCA -i
set notify echo `cat`
set stack_mouse_modifier Mod4
set focus_follow_mouse 0
set window_open_frame current
set window_open_focus 1
set command_buffer_size 4096
set notify_buffer_size 4096
set frame_display_hidden 1
set frame_split_focus current
set group_close_empty 0
set window_size_hints 1

 musca -c 'show frames'
0 * 0 22 840 1028 0
1 - 840 22 840 1028 0

Kind regards

Thomas

Hi Thomas

I'm unable to reproduce this. Let me try an example to be sure we're speaking about the same things. Please identify where the following steps break for you:

1. Start Musca with default settings (frame_display_hidden=1, window_open_frame=current)
2. Split screen in half with 'hsplit' or Mod4+h
3. Open an xterm.
4. Focus the frame containing the existing xterm.
5. Type something in xterm to identify it visually.
6. Open another xterm.
7. See first xterm move to the empty frame, and second xterm appear in the current frame.

Thanks
