1 This is my fork of the dwm project adapted to my personal music production and/or coding workflow. 2 3 Original repo could be found in the suckless.org website. 4 5 6 dwm - dynamic window manager 7 ============================ 8 dwm is an extremely fast, small, and dynamic window manager for X. 9 10 11 Requirements 12 ------------ 13 In order to build dwm you need the Xlib header files. 14 15 16 Installation 17 ------------ 18 Edit config.mk to match your local setup (dwm is installed into 19 the /usr/local namespace by default). 20 21 Afterwards enter the following command to build and install dwm (if 22 necessary as root): 23 24 make clean install 25 26 27 Running dwm 28 ----------- 29 Add the following line to your .xinitrc to start dwm using startx: 30 31 exec dwm 32 33 In order to connect dwm to a specific display, make sure that 34 the DISPLAY environment variable is set correctly, e.g.: 35 36 DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec dwm 37 38 (This will start dwm on display :1 of the host foo.bar.) 39 40 In order to display status info in the bar, you can do something 41 like this in your .xinitrc: 42 43 while xsetroot -name "`date` `uptime | sed 's/.*,//'`" 44 do 45 sleep 1 46 done & 47 exec dwm 48 49 50 Configuration 51 ------------- 52 The configuration of dwm is done by creating a custom config.h 53 and (re)compiling the source code.
