spectrwm is a small, dynamic tiling and reparenting window manager for x11. it tries to stay out of the way so that valuable screen real estate can be used for much more important stuff. it has sane defaults, and it does not require one to learn a language to do any configuration. spectrwm is written by hackers for hackers, and it strives to be small, compact, and fast. spectrwm was largely inspired by [xmonad] and [dwm] both are fine products, but they suffer from things like: crazy-unportable-language syndrome, silly defaults, asymmetrical window layout, the how hard can it be? (to code efficiently) problem, and good old nih. nevertheless, [dwm] was a phenomenal resource, and good ideas and code were borrowed from it. on the other

QUESTION
I am writing a small program to list the file descriptors of a specific process, and I am having a hard time understanding the results. The process I'm inspecting looks like this:

is likely opened somehow by your window manager (perhaps through an LD_PRELOAD or something similar). You can see which file descriptors are opened, and how, by using strace
(however, you should use the flag -ff
in this case, because you are forking a new process).
You can also use GDB to identify when certain system calls are made (i.e. open) to identify at what point in execution your process opens the file descriptor associated with /home/{user}/.spectrwm.conf
(see catchpoints).
As for the other file descriptors, to help you understand what's going on, I ran your code again. Here are the parent process's file descriptors:
