dwm config

I was inspired by these forums to try out dwm, and it's really sweet...much better than wmii IMO. Just wondering if you all could me some tips and/or share your configs or whatever.

My setup is pretty lame right now, pretty much the same as a fresh install with some key bindings for urxvt and swiftfox.

I really want to change the appearance: fonts, colors, and stuff; don't really know what the options are under the appearance setting, being the "noob" that I am.

Also, on a different note I was wondering where I can find out more about .Xdefaults. I really want to config them, but I don't know where to start. I see all the awesome looking fonts and colors and stuff, and I say to my self Wow          ...whatever.

Thanks a lot,

Julian

Re: dwm config

my runapp.sh

#!/bin/sh

. ~/.dmenu/config

exe="$(lsx `echo $PATH | sed 's/:/ /g'` | sort -u | $DMENU)"

exec $exe

My .dmenu/config

FONT="-*-terminus-medium-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
NORMBGCOLOR="#222"
NORMFGCOLOR="#ccc"
SELBGCOLOR="#555"
SELFGCOLOR="#fff"

DMENU="dmenu -b -fn $FONT -nb $NORMBGCOLOR -nf $NORMFGCOLOR -sb $SELBGCOLOR -sf $SELFGCOLOR"

And the script I use to run dwm, so I can replace the binary and rerun without quiting X and closing the programs I'm running (I made it 15 minutes ago, and haven't tested it yet). I'm going to rebuild dwm and bind a key (WIN+Ctrl+q I guess), so it does a "touch ~/dwm/keeprunning" and then quits dwm, my scripts checks for the existence of that file, and if it exists, it reruns dwm using the newer executable.

!/bin/sh

DWM="${HOME}/dwm/dwm"
RUNNINGDWM="${HOME}/dwm/dwm.run"
KEEPRUNING="${HOME}/dwm/keeprunning"

function rundwm
{
    rm -f "$KEEPRUNING"
    /bin/cp -f "$DWM" "$RUNNINGDWM"
    exec "$RUNNINGDWM"
}

rundwm

while [ -e "$KREEPRUNING" ]; do
    rundwm
done

Edit: well... this last script doesn't work, I'm not a bash expert, and I don't really know how X manages its sessions, if anyone knows how to archieve what I want, tell me how please tongue

Re: dwm config

If you like to make changes to dwm, I really suggest learning about the quilt interface that is built into mercurial

Re: dwm config

Thanks for the responses so far....it helps to see how everyone else sets everything up.

I got another question on how to modify the dwm bar at the top (or bottom in codemac's case). I want something like the wmii status thingy......

Also how do i set-up dmenu, would help me out a lot?

dwm reads text from stdin and puts it in the status bar. I use a wrapper script written in Ruby, but you can use whatever language you want:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
def mpdstat
    status = `mpc`
    if status.count($/) == 1
    return "mpd stopped"
    else
    return status.split($/)[0]
    end
end

def time
    Time.now.strftime("%I:%M")
end

dwm = IO.popen(ENV["HOME"] + "/.dwm/dwm", "a")
sleep 2
while dwm
    dwm.puts mpdstat + " - " + time
    sleep 3
end

That version relies on dwm being at ~/.dwm/dwm.

For dmenu (I assume you want a program menu), just install it along with lsx and copy the dmenu snippet from config.arg.h to your own config.h.

What are some good fonts I should get to spruce up my config.h and .Xdefaults? I got bitstream and terminus.....

Re: dwm config

does any of u have UTF-8 locale?
dwm seems to spit out an error about missing fontsets

missing fontset: JISX0201.1976-0
missing fontset: GB2312.1980-0
missing fontset: KSC5601.1987-0
missing fontset: JISX0208.1983-0

the only related post i could find online was http://linuxforum.ru/index.php?s=&showt … t&p=370383 but as far as i can translate it with babelfish , it doesnt seem to include a fix

Offtopic: I advise you to avoid calling mpc like that, it's slow. Use something like librmpd

It's fast enough, since it's only called every 3 seconds. I've watched it in top, there's very little CPU usage.

I've actually ported the script to Python now, and am working on generalizing it. I might post it once it's done.


EDIT: Also, the script as it's posted has an annoying delay when you start dwm. I've fixed it in the Python version by using an infinite loop and just catching the exception when dwm quits.

What about "killall dwm && dwm"? Works here, for some reason X doesn't die after I kill dwm if Firefox (or any other Gecko-based browser) is running

Re: dwm config

maybe you don't have
exec /path/to/dwm
in your last line in your .xinitrc
or you have some lines before which puts some status in your titlebar like
while true
do
   echo `date`
done | dwm
then i can stop dwm but the other programs still run, and therefore X will also stay "alive" wink

Re: dwm config

My config.h is pretty basic. here are the few changes;

#define NORMBORDERCOLOR         "#dddddd"
#define NORMBGCOLOR             "#92aeb7"
#define NORMFGCOLOR             "#222222"
#define SELBORDERCOLOR          "#92aeb7"
#define SELBGCOLOR              "#3e3c3a"
#define SELFGCOLOR              "#ffffff"

const char *tags[] = { "default", "firefox", "float", "misc", NULL };

Other then that, I added a couple keys for firefox and mpc control. Also swapped the keys for terminal and zoom. Will most likely change the font once I decide which one to pick.

My .xinitrc.

feh --bg-scale $HOME/gsm.dust.png
while true
do
echo "[MPD: `mpc | sed -n '1p'`] [Mail: `ls $HOME/mail/inbox/new/|wc -l`] [`date '+%a %b %d %r'`"]
sleep 2
done | dwm

Yeah, that must be it. I have "exec ruby ~/.dwm/dwm.rb | dwm" in my ~/.xinitrc. However, X doesn't stay alive if I only have terms (urxvt) open.

Has anyone else been able to edit and recompile dwm without killing X?

while true; do dwm;  done

Works for me:D

For some reason X doesn't die after I kill dwm if Firefox (or any other Gecko-based browser) is running

Same here. I remember noticing it with other apps too but I'm not quite sure. \:

Re: dwm config

Heh you guys seem to have the opposite problem to me. If I pipe something to dwm then when I kill dwm, X stays alive, which I don't won't. I'm guessing it's because X waits for the loop to end and not for dwm. The loop won't end because it's an infinite loop, but I also don't wont to check if DWM is running everytime tongue Currently I just kill X instead of DWM.

Anyway here's my setup:
.xinitrc

urxvtd &

eval `cat ~/.fehbg` &

# Autostart
xmodmap ~/.xmodmap &
#xbindkeys &
ob3_term & 

# Start WM
while [ 1 ]; do
    ~/Devil/bin/dwm-status &
    [[ "`cat /proc/acpi/ac_adapter/ADP1/state`" =~ "on-line" ]] \
    && sleep 5\
    || sleep 1m
done | exec dwm

dwm-status

#!/bin/bash
bin="$HOME/Devil/bin"
pkgs="`$bin/pacman.sh`"
battery="`$bin/battery.sh`"
memory="`$bin/memory.sh`"
time=`date +%H:%M`
#volume=`$bin/volume.sh`
#sda3=`df -h | grep sda3 | awk -F " " '{print $5}'`
echo "M: $memory | P:$pkgs | B:$battery | $time"

Irssi::signal_add('window item remove','command3');

This was also done in a rush and could be improved..

All the above have had minimal testing but appear to work ok.

Re: dwm config

does any of u have UTF-8 locale?
dwm seems to spit out an error about missing fontsets

missing fontset: JISX0201.1976-0
missing fontset: GB2312.1980-0
missing fontset: KSC5601.1987-0
missing fontset: JISX0208.1983-0

the only related post i could find online was http://linuxforum.ru/index.php?s=&showt … t&p=370383 but as far as i can translate it with babelfish , it doesnt seem to include a fix

Think I need to revive this old thread. I'm trying to get dwm to work with my custom (stolen) config, but I'm getting the same error as above. Can't seem to find a solution to it anywhere. Any ideas anyone?

Re: dwm config

Are you getting a segfault after the fontsets when you try to execute?

There's no place like 127.0.0.1
