Should "Execute an action when ForEach failed to find a match #12" be implemented in labwc? (Mikachu/openbox)

[ludg1e]

Hello,

While I assume that labwc doesn't aim by any mean to become an Openbox clone, I think this may be a good addition to the ForEach action. Issue in Openbox mirror repo: https://github.com/Mikachu/openbox/issues/12

It basically allows to run an action (else) in case the ForEach action has failed (tried to explain). The user even implemented it by itself so the code for labwc could even be inspired (in some way) by his code (https://github.com/tnymlr/openbox/commit/8f45daa0bc1ba2e6ae6112a589a5ad22efed06e1).

Thank you and have a nice day

Happy to treat this as in-scope.

Did you want to try the patch?

I think action.c:924 is good starting point. Maybe make run_if_action() return the number of "then" actions run... if zero, do the "none" actions.
