bspwm ===== bspwm is a tiling window manager. ## Install ## % sudo apt-get install libxcb-xinerama0-dev libxcb-util0-dev libxcb-icccm4-dev libxcb-ewmh-dev libxcb-keysyms1-dev % cd ~/repo % git clone https://github.com/baskerville/bspwm % make % cp bspc ~/bin/ % cp bspwm ~/bin/ % cd ~/repo % git clone https://github.com/baskerville/sxhkd % cd sxhkd % make % cp ./sxhkd ~/bin/ (If 'make' errors out with a missing lib, just do `apt-file search foo/bar.h` to find the package that provides it.) ## Configure ## Make sure $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is set. If not, set it in your `.xinitrc`: export XDG_CONFIG_HOME="$HOME/.config" Then: % mkdir ~/.config/bspwm % mkdir ~/.config/sxhkd % cp ~/repo/bspwm/examples/bspwmrc ~/.config/bspwm/ % cp ~/repo/bspwm/examples/sxhkdrc ~/.config/sxhkd/ % chmod a+x ~/.config/bspwm/bspwmrc In the above two files, we set wm settings and key bindings, respectively. Append to `.xinitrc`, replacing your existing window manager: sxhkd & exec bspwm Log out and log in again.
