BTW, Starfall, I read the blog post. It was great thanks, but I also left you some comments as well. Just some things you might find useful or interesting. Gotta go to work now, enjoy!

Thank you.

I'm posting this here in hope that the commenter on my blog will see. I received an e-mail alert stating your comment had been posted, I also received another after asking if I had deleted the comment. I haven't deleted them, no, they're just not showing up Sorry about this. Perhaps they'll have appeared by tomorrow, if not, I'll look into it.

**EDIT** Looks like the comments were marked as spam for some reason... anyhoo, I'll stop clogging up this lovely thread!

@ Starfall, If they do, you will have a billion comments of the same thign from me... I sent you an email.

@ Starfall: Internet messaging doesn't love me. Other comments are mine.
Many thanks for your explanation here and in your blog.

can you please share your configs?

thanks, flexo

theGunslinger · 2013-01-06 23:14:59

@flexo3001

Well I ditched the i3bar and nothing much besides a few hotkeys in .i3/config. But if you want .Xresources and .conkyrc I'll post them.

flexo3001 · 2013-01-08 00:13:58

@theGunslinger

the .conkyrc and .Xresources would be nice and enough! thanks

theGunslinger · 2013-01-08 01:12:42

Here's the conkyrc

And the .Xresources

Really want to give i3 a go. Scanning configs at in this thread at the moment. Really want to get workspaces set up properly. Can I use a name of a workspace rather than a plain number? similar to openbox desktops

theGunslinger · 2013-01-14 20:33:24

Yes you can

simonito · 2013-01-16 01:19:12

a bunch of shitty things opened/running:

New to Arch and Linux. Just found out how to integrate conky with the i3's bar

@ artel, please post a small thumbnail. Read the instructions at the beginning of the thread.

artel · 2013-01-16 09:13:09

Fixed it, sorry about that. Thought it was small enough.

Mr Green · 2013-01-16 17:25:48

Know that if I launch a browser it opens on Web workspace, can I do the same for a terminal [possibly use its title] to open on a workspace, say called Todo?

Ok I see now thanks
