'''Module to track the name of the program in the currently focused window
On Wayland desktops:
Tries AT-SPI first and falls back to xprop
On X11 desktops:
Uses only xprop
AT-SPI:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assistive_Technology_Service_Provider_Interface
- AT-SPI seems to work reasonably well in Gnome Wayland, KDE (Plasma)
Wayland, and in some other cases. It even works in most X11 desktops, even
in i3 (But as getting the active window via AT-SPI can sometimes fail,
it is better to use xprop for that on X11 desktops, xprop is very reliable
on X11 desktops).
- Even in a Gnome Wayland or KDE (Plasma) Wayland session AT-SPI
doesn‘t work for some old X11 programs like xterm, urxvt, ...
But the fallback to xprop works in these cases.
- To make AT-SPI work with Firefox and google-chrome,
GNOME_ACCESSIBILITY=1 needs to be set in the environment.
- To make AT-SPI work with Qt5, QT_LINUX_ACCESSIBILITY_ALWAYS_ON=1
needs to be set in the environment
- To make AT-SPI work with Qt4, QT_ACCESSIBILITY=1 needs to be set
in the environment
In some cases, the name returned by AT-SPI may slightly differ
from from the name acquired by ibus with or by xprop.
For example in case of google-chrome:
- AT-SPI: 'Google Chrome'
- ibus focus id: 'google-chrome'
- xprop: 'google-chrome'
To test this module execute
sleep 5 && python3 itb_active_window.py
in a terminal, and focus a different window and see whether
the information from that active window is fetched correctly
Then focus different windows and see whether the log output
seen in the terminal shows correctly which window is currently active
(This works only with AT-SPI).

# There are some windows where the 'window:activate',
# 'window:deactivate' signals do not work, for example windows
# containing old X11 programs like xterm behave like that.
#
# If the focus moves from a window where the signals work to a
# window where they do not, only the 'window:deactivate'
# occurs.
#
# Therefore, we may want to set self._active_program_name = ''
# when a window is deactivated because we may not be able to
# get the true name of the program in the window which is
# activated next and it is better to have an empty string than
# a wrong program name left over from the previously active
# program.
#
# *But*, sometimes the 'window:deactivate' signal for the old
# window occurs *after* the 'window:activate' signal of the
# new window! Weird! Therefore, set self._active_program_name
# = '' only if the program name is still unchanged!
#
# Theoretically if there are two windows for the same program,
# for example two 'soffice' windows (Libreoffice), moving from
# one to the other could then reset the program name from
# 'soffice' to '' if the 'window:deactivate' signal comes
# last.
#
# Luckily, when testing this I never saw that the
# 'window:deactivate' signal came last when moving the focus
# between two windows for the same program, i.e. when moving
# from 'soffice' to 'soffice' or from 'firefox' to 'firefox',
# this never happened. But when moving from 'soffice' to
# 'gnome-terminal' or from 'firefox' to 'gnome-terminal', it
# *always* happened. This might be just an accident, but I
# don’t have a better idea for a workaround at the moment.
