That's my story with XMonad. smile

Good luck. I just switched a few days ago, mainly for ResizableTall and so i wouldn't have to keep updating all my dwm patches. I'd also been drooling over contrib for a few months. I'm liking it alot so far.

Re: August 2009 Screenshots

I use xmonad because even though haskell may not be friendly, the defaults are really good, and its very stable.

Made some edits, now its got more color (thanks to Daisuke_Aramaki) and in general isn't so ugly:

Is there any wmii style tiling layout yet?

I still kinda miss wmii, I hear from wiki the latest code from the repo has xinerama support. I may have to check this out. I've been using xmonad since i got dual screens.

Re: August 2009 Screenshots

As I did this setup on a very old laptop, this is a very minimal configuration to gain maximum speed smile

clean:
tMjgxZw

qmpdclient:
tMjgxaQ

opera:
tMjgxaA

Usually I prefer Firefox over Opera, but at least opera-snapshot from archlinuxfr repo is a whole lot faster than Firefox.

Panel: lxpanel
WM: Openbox

The graph near the clock displays the CPU load.

The todolist is based on todo.sh, which I manage on my server (so I can run a little aimbot to send/receive todo's from my non-smartphone), and copy over to my laptop periodically with cron (todobackup.sh) and run through a wrapper script (todolist.sh) to put the output in the format I prefer.

The Google calendar listing is based conkyGoogleCalendar.py, which I found online (I believe througth the ubuntu forums). I run conky-calendar.sh via cron, which stores the most recent calendar in a file, then displayed with conky. I use a basic cache, so it will only copy the calendar if it can successfully pull it in (i.e., i'm connected to the internet)...otherwise it saves the old one to use.

It's all a bit convoluted, but it works for me smile

Re: August 2009 Screenshots

much patience can be found in #xmonad.  much patience.

im layout, can cycle through all my standard layouts in the other 9/10th of that workspace; current background showing in mirage:

nifty circle layout, magicFocus keeps the focused window front and center, additional windows are placed circularly around the outside:

the wikidetails.  think big part, small part.  the ratio of the whole to the big part = the ratio of the big part to the small part.  its an irrational number thought to be an aesthetically pleasing ratio.  lots of examples in nature, anatomy, architecture, etc.

in xmonad you can define what percentage the master pane should take up, and i found some xmonad.hs online that had this:

ratio           = toRational (2/(1 + sqrt 5 :: Double)) -- golden ratio

which (thanks to haskell) is about as close an approximation to an irrational number you'll ever get to use in a config file big_smile
