Remove icons on Awesome 3 statusbar?

I've been looking at tons of config files, but I can't seem to figure out how to remove icons on the statusbar (next to application names).  Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Re: Remove icons on Awesome 3 statusbar?

If you're using the 3.1-rc1 version or git then I think that this isn't possible because the code creating the tasklist object

tmp_tasklist = awful.widget.tasklist.new( some_function )

creates the tasklist with icons and a label and you can't pass it a parameter to tell it what you want. It would be pretty easy to change it but I didn't get to do it yet. If you want to change it you'd have to change the code in /usr/share/awesome/lib/awful/widget.lua and in there the function tasklist.new(...) (if your awesome installation is installed to /usr).
