 Hello Nikos,
 
 Sorry for my not responding to this PR sooner, but I've been busy. I
 really like the idea of extending the dwm-port with patches.
 
 My biggest problem is the amount of work it takes to update all patches
 to new upstream releases. The result is that I can garEspecially since any combination of patches
 should work and they all operate on a single .c file. 
 
 I also doubt the semi-official status of the patches on the dwm-site, it
 is a wiki-like site with no real moderation were every idiot (even me
 ;)) can put his patches on.
 
 So I agree to close this PR. But still thanks for your patch, it has
 given me a few ideas to perhaps do this in another way. 
 
 Regards,
