How do you configure dwm to look like this. http://timtux.net/tmp/screenie.png

I tried that but I get a error when trying to include fibonacci.h in the config.h file... is that another file I must download? and how do I tie in conkyrc and urxvt.

Download the fibonacci patch from the dwm mailinglist/website. For patching follow the directions from the dwm website. I think it's:

patch -p1 < /path/to/file

For urxvt, just add that to your config.h @ the binding section.

Okay sweet... now each time you change something in dwm you have to recompile it correct? When I do that would I have to uninstall and reinstall it or just recompile over it?

Yeah you have to recompile each time you want to make a change, which sucks and is whay i moved to ion3.
just run in your dwm directory:

sudo make clean install

This will,as you know intstall dwm to /usr/local/bin, unless you chnaged that.

Since i'm using ABS to build DWM how would I apply the patch... its asking me file to patch.

How is ION3? Cause this is a little annoying ha

When you use abs, make a /var/abs/local and put a local copy of dwm there. Then edit the PKGCONFIG to have the patch applied before compiling

honestly i would just download the source from the website. It's easier to maintain. Or if you want i can give you my tarball, with a buch of patches already applied.

I like ion3 much better...

number3 · 2007-09-27 03:29:04

link me to your tarball... and send me a screenshot of your ion3 box.

Sorry...alright I'll have to do it tomorrow...on my ::shudder:: Vista box now.

SleepingGiant08 · 2007-09-28 21:18:02

ok here we go...the shot is not full resolution, i dont know why, but whatever...

Here is the tar, unfortunately it will only be hosted for 14 days, so let me know if you want me to upload it again.

While trying to make clean install I get

config.h:48:14: warning: blackslash-newline at end of file
tile. c:8: rttpt NMASTER undeclared here (not in a function)
make: *** [tile.o] Error 1

Any ideas?

Are you using my configs and stuff? Because it compiles fine for me. Otherwise post your config.h

Post configs to a pastebin if you can, http://pastebin.archlinux.org/

Keeps the threads tidy and preseves formatting. Syntax colouring also

Any ideas?

first of all, declare NMASTER in your config.h, like:

NMASTER = 1

As far as the config.h warning, I do not know. but I think it should still compile

number3 · 2007-10-04 12:33:18

Figured that one out like two mins before you posted... but thanks! ...but still no compiling. Now I'm getting

event.c: In function keypress
event.c:254: error: stray \ in program
event.c: In function grabkeys
event.c:358: error: stray \ in program

now the only thing I've changed is config.h. Would this error be in event.c or the config.h?

Gilneas · 2007-10-04 13:57:05

Correct me if I'm wrong (no dwm user anymore), but I think event.h sources config.h and actually says something like "struct KEYS" where KEYS is defined in config.h.
So you probably have one line in that big struct thing that doesn't end with '\' (even if it's a comment) so the compiler doesn't know that it continues on the next line.

rson451 · 2007-10-04 14:41:41

number3, why dont you upgrade to dwm 4.5. all sources are in two files, config.h and dwm.c. much easier to figure these issues out.

number3 · 2007-10-04 15:43:09

will 4.5 work with fibonacci patch?

rson451 · 2007-10-04 17:32:11

nope not unless someone has updated it and i don't believe that it has been.. so i guess upgrading is a no go for you right now.

Thrillhouse · 2007-10-04 18:21:28

SleepingGiant - is that a Firefox theme in your screenshot or just an effect of the WM?
