dwm 5.8.2 + conky

Really embracing that rolling release model, eh? 

Nah, just too lazy to apply patches to 6.0

Will do it someday, i promise.

PS: Also, i didn't see a good enough reason to switch to 6, yet.

That's what turned me off dwm. Having to find/make patches to get some choice in functionality then having to do it all again next update. Who came up with the idea of giving half the work to the end user? That bloke needs shooting.

Re: March 2012 Screenshots

@moetunes: You're right but dwm is not updated very often (in Arch i mean). Maybe twice in a year so you don't need do tweak your patch everyweek.

Ended up using icewm again, nice, snappy and simple... also edited the Aeteria theme a little. The gtk theme is xfce-dusk and wallpaper is from simpledesktops.com.

Re: March 2012 Screenshots

Been a while since I posted; I've gradually been getting the hang of WMFS2.

http://ompldr.org/tZDFuMA http://ompldr.org/tZDFuMQ

I'd eventually like to get the "dock" script from the WMFS wiki working like the old selbar: List all clients on a tag and highlight the focused one. Any other WMFS2 users out there? Should we start a new thread on it?

Wow it looks really amazing. You make me wanna try wmfs myself

Sure, here ya go:

URxvt.scrollBar: off
URxvt.perl-ext-common:  default,tabbed
URxvt.tabbed.tabbar-fg: 2
URxvt.tabbed.tabbar-bg: 8
URxvt.tabbed.tab-fg:    3
URxvt.tabbed.tab-bg:    8

URxvt.font:  xft:ohsnap:size=9:antialias=false

Using:
Openbox
Gtk theme: Unified (with lots of personal modifications)

The "panel" at the top of the screen is simply a conky + trayer. I set a top margin in obconf so that windows don't overlap.

Terminator (vim, irssi, ranger file browser) on desktop 1
Thunar and Firefox on desktop 2
Using xcompmgr compositor so that the conky + trayer blend in together with transparency.

As you can see I am learning Haskell... wish me luck, or atleast pray that my brain doesn't explode :-P
And for those who think it's a waste of time to learn vim, do give it a try with a good tutorial! http://www.derekwyatt.org/vim/vim-tutorial-videos/
I've only been at it for a couple days and it's amazing how much faster I work compared to something like Geany...

Finally, some IceWM love

I fixed icewm to make the taskbar width adjustable, it's a small fix but it just adds that nice eyecandy touch.

I have moved to arch from ubuntu just 3 days ago. Just Cinnamon 1.4 and Faenza Icons. For me configuring openbox or awesome is still hard >.<

Re: March 2012 Screenshots

first time in awesome wm, coming from KDE~ I don't know a sh- of LUA, but I think I kinda understand the basics. The theme was taken from the awesome thread, dunno from who exactly, I downloaded a bunch of 'em hehe, it's called 'blind-alien'.

BTW, I love ranger! <3

Switched from Mint + Cinnamon to Arch + KDE yesterday. I've tried Arch before, but this was the smoother install by far.

Thanks to Teho for showing how beautiful KDE can be.
