Patching suckless software: st Mouse Scrolling and dwm System Tray and Swallowing

In this video, I apply several patches to my builds of st and dwm to add scrollback functionality in the terminal, to add a system tray, and to allow terminals to swallow graphical applications they spawn.
I ran into some trouble with picom and screenkey, but following the video, I copied /usr/share/doc/picom/picom.conf.example to ~/.config/picom.conf and set vsync=false to fix the error encountered in the video. After that screenkey did show up in the systray by itself. I also installed slop to allow me to select a region for screenkey to appear in.

BROHHHH I spent a whole day trying to fix this (st Mouse Scrolling) your video saved my live ! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH :D hehehe

@@bwestbro quick question: To swap from a tag to another we need to do SUPERKEY+2 (or any other number) is it possible to use the numbers from keypad ?(the numbers on the right side of the keyboard) I know that I have to change the config.def.h on the keys area. But idk what name I should use for it

[@bwestbro]

I think if you add #include to your config.h, you should be able to use XF86XK_Numeric0 and the other numbers for the keypad. If those don't work, I'd look through that header file and see if anything else sounds promising. I'd give it a try myself, but I don't have any keyboards with num pads!
