--- Apply rules to clients at startup.
module("awful.rules")

--- This is the global rules table.
-- <p>You should fill this table with your rule and properties to apply.
-- For example, if you want to set xterm maximized at startup, you can add:
-- <br/>
-- <code>
-- { rule = { class = "xterm" },
--   properties = { maximized_vertical = true, maximized_horizontal = true } }
-- </code>
-- </p>
-- <p>If you want to set mplayer floating at startup, you can add:
-- <br/>
-- <code>
-- { rule = { name = "MPlayer" },
--   properties = { floating = true } }
-- </code>
-- </p>
-- <p>If you want to put Firefox on a specific tag at startup, you
-- can add:
-- <br/>
-- <code>
-- { rule = { instance = "firefox" },
--   properties = { tag = mytagobject } }
-- </code>
-- </p>
-- <p>If you want to put Emacs on a specific tag at startup, and
-- immediately switch to that tag you can add:
-- <br/>
-- <code>
-- { rule = { class = "Emacs" },
--   properties = { tag = mytagobject, switchtotag = true } }
-- </code>
-- </p>
-- <p>If you want to apply a custom callback to execute when a rule matched, you
-- can add:
-- <br/>
-- <code>
-- { rule = { class = "dosbox" },
--   callback = awful.placement.centered }
-- </code>
-- </p>
-- <p>Note that all "rule" entries need to match. If any of the entry does not
-- match, the rule won't be applied.</p>
-- <p>If a client matches multiple rules, their applied in the order they are
-- put in this global rules table. If the value of a rule is a string, then the
-- match function is used to determine if the client matches the rule.</p>
--
-- <p> To match multiple clients to a rule one need to use slightly different 
-- syntax:
-- <br/>
-- <code>
-- { rule_any = { class = { "MPlayer", "Nitrogen" }, instance = { "xterm" } },
--   properties = { floating = true } }
-- </code>
-- </p>
--
-- <p> To match multiple clients with an exception one can couple 'except' or
-- 'except_any' with the rules:
-- <br/>
-- <code>
-- { rule = { class = "Firefox" },
--   except = { instance = "Navigator" },
--   properties = {floating = true},
-- },
-- </code>
-- <br/>
-- <code>
-- { rule_any = { class = { "Pidgin", "Xchat" } },
--   except_any = { role = { "conversation" } },
--   properties = { tag = tags[1][1] }
-- }
-- <br/>
-- <code>
-- { rule = {},
--   except_any = { class = { "Firefox", "Vim" } },
--   properties = { floating = true }
-- }
-- </code>
-- </p>
