1 # Animia
|
|
|
2 Animia is a work-in-progress cross-platform hard fork of Anisthesia and part of
|
|
|
3 Minori.
|
|
|
4
|
|
|
5 Most (if not all) Anisthesia configs should also work in this library as well
|
|
|
6 (at least on Windows).
|

|
|
|
8 ## License
|
|
|
9 Changes divergent from Anisthesia are under the BSD 3-clause license. You can
|
|
|
10 find a copy of the original MIT license bundled with Anisthesia at `LICENSE.MIT`
|
|
|
11 in the root folder.
|
|
|

|
|
|
13 ## Support
|
|
|
14 Unlike Anisthesia, Animia currently does not support UI automation, i.e., most
|
|
|
15 web browsers will not work properly, if at all.
|
|
|
16
|
|
|
17 Animia will first attempt to connect to a windowing system. If that fails, it falls
|
|
|
18 back to just enumerating over the open processes in the system.

20 ## Platform-specific quirks
|
|
|
21
|
|
|
22 ### Windows
|
|
|
23 To get the currently opened file handles on Windows, Animia has to use internal
|
|
|
24 kernel functions. However, these functions aren't likely to change anytime soon.
|
|
|
25
|
|
|
26 ### macOS
|
|
|
27 The code to retrieve executable names on macOS uses internal functions. However,
|
|
|
28 if these functions cannot be found for whatever reason, it falls back to parsing
|
|
|
29 the arguments, and then to calling the kernel.
|
|
|
30
|
|
|
31 Additionally, macOS does not have the concept of class names, rather, it has
|
|
|
32 bundle identifiers, which are a suitable replacement in most use cases, and are
|
|
|
33 what Animia will try to grab before falling back to the Quartz window name.
|
|
|
34
|
|
|
35 ### X11
|
|
|
36 Animia requires that the XRes extension is installed to retrieve window PIDs.
