By the way, you mentioned setting Emacs to use two different fonts depending on the language. Could you share that part of your config?

  (when (or (eq system-type 'gnu/linux)  (eq system-type 'linux))
    (dolist (target '(japanese-jisx0208
    ))
    (set-fontset-font "fontset-default" target '("VL PGothic" . "unicode-bmp")))
    (setq face-font-rescale-alist '(("-jisx02[^-]*-[^-]*\\'" . 1.4)))
    (setq face-font-rescale-alist '((".*VL PGothic.*" . 1.4)))
    (set-default-font "DejaVu Sans Mono 10")
    (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(font . "DejaVu Sans Mono 10"))
  )

This is what I use for the font part. It not only allows you to set different fonts, but to scale them differently. This is obviously intended to change the font only for japanese encoded characters, but you can just add your preferred encoding (since it gets compiled into a list, you just add as many encodings as you want to that list).
It's definitely not the best piece of LISP you'll see on the matter, but it works just fine for me.

What WM is that?

And could you please share your .Xresources file?

Re: June 2011 Screenshots

Switched back to Compiz instead of subtle. Found out I'm not that much of a keyboard guy. I do have subtle's tiling however, thanks to Compiz' grid plugin.

That's a custom one, based on the port of the Railscasts.tmtheme.
Just pushed it to my "dots" repo on Github.

According to Archey, that is indeed FVWM wink The "status widgets" are Dzen2.
Xresources are on Github

Thanks and I really like your terminal colour scheme. However I couldn't get your dotshare.vim working correctly on my machine (either that or it doesn't look very nice in C).

Warcrime? You're probably older like me, and he's probably younger I'm guessing. Us old guys can't see too well. Programmers seem to like their fonts as small as possible to fit as much on the screen as they can. I personally think it's awesome, I just wish I had the eyes for it. edit: and the knowledge to do it!

Re: June 2011 Screenshots

Pretty sure it has nothing to do with age, just vision. Some people tend to not like bright colors on dark backgrounds (me included, I suffer from chronic migraines and they get triggered by really bright things). I had the same reaction when I first opened it, too much info onscreen and the colors are a tad too bright for such a dark background. But I like low saturated colors in general, so I guess it's just a matter of preference in the end. dmz's setup seems to be something that took him quoite a while. Nice job, but (IMHO) a little less crowding would do it good.

Yeah, it's got nothing to do with age, I am 23 with perfect vision and I too like a bit bigger programming fonts (Consolas 12pt for example). I'm usually sitting like a meter away from my monitor thinking about code I'm writing and I really don't need to exert my eyes in addition to coding.
I'm pretty sure I would go insane coding in k3ttc4r's setup, as much as awesome this shot looks, the fonts there are way too small for my taste.

Re: June 2011 Screenshots

I admit, I have a habit of being too close to my screen. Actually, I'm not sure what came first - Being to close, and therefore using smaller fonts, or using smaller fonts and therefore being too close to the screen...
Also - the font in that shot is insanely tiny.

Well, 'warcrime' was intended to be an amusing exaggeration. Guess I could have thrown a smilie in there to make it more obvious tongue

For me the real killer in dmz's screen shot is the dark background. And, of course, the extra-bright colours on top don't help much either. The font is small too, but I could probably manage reading it with a plain black-on-white setup. A larger font would be much easier to read though (I'd be able to read with much less effort).

On the topic of colours: a few days ago I decided to try the solarized colours, and I'm surprised how much I like them. I figured I'd hate it and delete the Xresources file right away, but I might keep them.
