Re: Share your monsterwm desktop!

I have little Problem here:

I want to set up a `bar`. My regular font is ohsnap, but I want a bar with terminus-font. So I defined terminus in bars config.h and here is the Point. Bar says, that terminus is illigal and X crashes. I have no Idea why this happened.
Can anybody help me, please?

the original bar config contain the terminus font right method.

Re: Share your monsterwm desktop!

well, this is not the right topic for this, but what happens if you do

$ echo "abc" | bar -p

if bar crashes, then something in its config is wrong.
iirc, even if the font is missing, bar will fallback to fixed.

if that works then probably something in your "startwm" script is wrong

according to the result I guess it's better to reply in
either the bar topic, or the monsterwm topic

How come all of the configs of bar have a config.h, but when I look in https://github.com/lemonboy/bar it does not use a config.h?

I recently discovered this WM, but it is so nice and well written that I submitted a patch for a feature I think was missing
