placen command in Musca

Adds the Musca command placen which is identical to place except it consider WM_NAME rather than WM_CLASS in matching windows. Really badly written.

No pointless border in Musca

Here is a script for the Musca window manager that gets rid of the border round a frame when there’s only one on the screen, in tiled mode.

Put the script somewhere and add these lines to your .musca_start:

hook on ^hsplit exec path/to/uselessborder/script right
hook on ^vsplit exec path/to/uselessborder/script down
hook on ^(remove|only) exec path/to/uselessborder/script none
hook on ^(only|add) border off

Musca ‘run in terminal’

Adds a new command term which is the same as shell except it runs the command in a terminal (rxvt-unicode by default). This is supposed to be similar to the ‘run in a terminal’ checkbox you get in the run dialogs of mainstream desktop environments like Gnome and Xfce.
