For reference: I had was having troubles getting URxvt to start from my config.h. Instead of putting it in there, I put it in my .Xdefaults (like background: #...... foreground: #......)
Second question was about dzen2. I was trying to make it appear on the bottom, and make a gap (so windows couldn't overlay/go under the bar. I just decided to overlay the dzen2 bar on the top-right like so:
EDIT: Thanks to sm00th I've solved my URxvt problems. The problem was that I couldn't put URxvt into config.h and get it working
EDIT: I've just decided to smudge all my time, cpu, temp, etc, things at the top right with dzen2 overlaying the default dwm status bar. Thanks anyway.

3.) How would I put this in termcmd:
urxvt -is +sb -fg '#51a366' -bg '#111111' -fn 'xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:pixelsize=11:antialias=false:autohinting=true'
This you can do in your ~/.Xdefaults file.
For example the font part will look like this:
URxvt*font: xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:pixelsize=11:antialias=false:autohinting=true

Thanks. Do you know why my "ls" command is all one color? Like folders and files look the same.

That's probably not a terminal app issue at all.
Are colors still the same if you run it like this:
ls --color=auto
If that helps you can just add an alias to your .bashrc
alias ls='ls --color=auto'

Thanks a lot. Now my URxvt problems/questions are solved.

Draucia, please don't erase questions from your original post if they are solved. They could make the thread confusing.
There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots !

2) Are you referring to the current window border that is highlighted?
If so, edit selbordercolor in config.h, run `make` and `make install`, kill dwm and launch it again.
static const char selbordercolor[] = "#424242";

Sorry, I put it at the end.

I've already got that solved, thanks.
Now I'm having a bit of trouble with dzen2. How can I put it at the bottom? If I type "dzen -y 750" alone, it goes at the bottom, but this command in my xinitrc, doesn't:
(sleep 1s && conky | dzen2 -y '750' -x '367' -e '' -fg '#dcdcdc' -bg '#111111' -w '800' -ta r -fn '-*-terminus-*-r-normal-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*' -h 20 ) &
I also need to somehow find a way to put space on the bottom.

Try it without the quotes around the x and y co-ordinates and remove the -e flag since you are not trying to catch any event.
(sleep 1s && conky | dzen2 -y 750 -x 367 -fg '#dcdcdc' -bg '#111111' -w '800' -ta r -fn '-*-terminus-*-r-normal-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*' -h 20 ) &

Thanks, but it's the same.
EDIT: This is really weird... removing -h 20 makes it go to the bottom, but there's a 2 pixel length from the bottom. If I add a -h in the front, it ignores the height. Raising 750 does nothing.

See: http://dzen.geekmode.org/dwiki/doku.php … een-bottom
To be a bit more explicit, when dzen2 detects that it won't fit at a specific screen border it will always align to top.
Be sure to use one of the ways depicted on the wiki page above, preferably the standard Xlib '-geometry' option.
Bye, Rob.

Draucia: please edit your original post and replace your questions. Otherwise this thread is useless.
Posting the equivalent of 'Nevermind, I fixed it.' in your thread or deleting your own posts for similar reasons is not only selfish and useless to the community, but a complete waste of resources and everyone's time.
