Subject: fix BadMatch error when embedding on some windows
X-Git-Url: http://www.git.stargrave.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a0274bc20e11d8672bb2953fdd1d3010c0e708c5;p=st.git

fix BadMatch error when embedding on some windows

When embedded, st fails with BadMatch error if the embedder's window has
non-default colormap/depth/visual.  This commit fixes that by creating
st's window inside root and then reparent it into embedder.

The reference window for dc.gc is also changed to match root's visuals.

A similar commit had been made for dmenu[1].
See this issue[2] on github for context.
