@OK100: and so you seem to have finally discovered the obscure beauty of xsetroot backgrounds.

I think that this is the correct this for the bigger picture

Just getting started using dwm (after using awesome for a while) and loving it!
I'm using my own mods equivalent to nextprev and uselessgap,
urxvt, firefox+pentadactyl and vim in shown in screenshot.

Here's a scrot of what I'm currently running. I'm still digging these colors so I have only changed the wallpaper. The wallpaper is a photo of Gamla Stan, which the Swedes will probably know. I've been there when I was visiting my girlfriend in Sweden and I totally love the place.

I ditched all the GUI filemanagers in favor of ranger and also swapped feh for imlibsetroot since I swapped viewnior for sxiv. Savvy? Lastly, I installed udiskie to have automount work with ranger and I'm a happy camper! I also tried vim, but I can't see the advantages it has to offer over nano for my every-day typing work

Here I'm showing off my ranger colorscheme that I've made to match my dir_colors and URxvt scheme:

Hey guys,

Reading this part of forum yesterday and didn't really know anything about Dwm and I decided to install Dwm and see how it went ?

To my surprise I love this Wm so I wiped my system and reinstalled Arch + Dwm.

I have read through most of this forum and tried different ways of trying to get conky to work on the statusbar but with no luck, I did eventually get the time and date workin and wallpaper.

so if anyone has some ideas of how I could get conky to work on the statusbar , I did get conky working but not on the statusbar.

cheers

Here is my .conkyrc for statuscolor patched dwm:

update_interval 2
TEXT
${exec echo -e \\x02 } ${exec echo -e \\x01}${cpu cpu0} ${exec echo -e \\x02 } ${exec echo -e \\x01}${execi 5 sensors | grep -A 1 'temp1' | cut -c16-17 | sed '/^$/d'}° ${exec echo -e \\x02} ${exec echo -e \\x01}${memperc}  ${exec echo -e \\x02} ${exec echo -e \\x01}${execi 900 $HOME/bin/weather}° ${exec echo -e \\x02} ${exec echo -e \\x01}${time %a %d}  ${exec echo -e \\x02} ${exec echo -e \\x01}${time %H:%M}

You also need stlarch_font from aur for icons.
Define it in config.h like this:

static const char font[]            = "-Misc-Stlarch-Medium-R-Normal--11-100-75-75-C-80-ISO10646-1" "," "-*-ohsnap-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*";

And the weather script:

#!/bin/sh
#AccuWeather (r) RSS weather tool for conky
#(c) Michael Seiler 2007

METRIC=1 #Should be 0 or 1; 0 for F, 1 for C
LOCATION="EUR|BA|BK001|SARAJEVO"

# Temp, conditions #
#curl -s http://rss.accuweather.com/rss/liveweather_rss.asp\?metric\=${METRIC}\&locCode\=${LOCATION} \
#| sed -n '/Currently:/ s/.*: \(.*\): \([-0-9]*\)\([CF]\).*/\2° \L\1/p' | sed 's/A°/°/'
 
# Temp only #
curl -s http://rss.accuweather.com/rss/liveweather_rss.asp\?metric\=${METRIC}\&locCode\=${LOCATION} | perl -ne 'if (/Currently/) {chomp;/\<title\>Currently: (.*)?\<\/title\>/; print "$1"; }' | cut -d ":" -f2 | cut -d " " -f2 | cut -d "C" -f1

Finally, add this to your dwm startup script:

conky | while read -r; do xsetroot -name "$REPLY"; done &

Thanks Saran

But I have found a solution from "FreeBSD forum" , maybe I will give your's ago tomorrow, it's getting a bit late here.
this is my .conkyrc

out_to_x no
out_to_console yes
background no
update_interval 1
total_run_times 0

TEXT
Hitman : [CPU: ${cpu cpu1}% / ${cpu cpu2}% / ${cpu cpu3}% / ${cpu cpu4}%] : [Mem:$memperc%] : [${downspeedf eth0}kb/s ${upspeedf eth0}kb/s] : [${time %a %b %d %H:%M:%S}]

and I put in .xinitrc

conky | while read -r status; do xsetroot -name "$status"; done &

And it works great

Paul-S · 2012-06-20 17:22:19

Really nice colours Unia, I've copied the whole lot

Cheers

Unia · 2012-06-20 18:02:24

^ I'm honored! I like your icons, what're they called?

Btw, are you using statuscolors with xft? If so, mind sharing that patch?

The icons are Aw0ken. I'm using your dwm xft, with the no title patch removed and added a scratchpad patch.

Cheers

I could show a "clean" screen shot, but it would just be a dark grey square.

I could show a "dirty" screen shot, but it would just be a dark grey square with some terminals filling it up.

So I will just show my statusbar:

Copycat But no sure, use it I guess you're using Conky with it, then? I've been wanting to color the status for a while, but haven't gotten around to modifying the statuscolors patch and strip what I don't need...

Oh and thanks for the icons. Somehow that script never worked for me but I'll give it another go. I remember it had a blue variant, should look good with the GTK theme.

Hey, dwm-pango maintainer here. I'll try to get the two to play together, hopefully won't take long.

Hrm… It's not as trivial as I hoped it would be. I'll try again tomorrow if I find the time. Can't promise anything, though.

Sorry

Pango (and XFT) changes alot of the original dwm code, on which statuscolors is based. Statuscolors in turn also changes alot; so you're left with a big mess if you want to combine the two. I wish you good luck though, and perhaps you can ask for help in the thread over @ community contributions.

How did you get those colored (1) icons (2) in your status bar ?
