Went to bed around ten, slept well, and woke up around seven.
Cloudy, breezy, a chance of showers, and a high of forty-seven today.
Goals:
Work:
Chaotic day. Spent the morning queuing videos for Mr. H, and chasing nonexistent (?) phone problems.
Mildly fed up, I spent the afternoon trying out new window managers.
Twenty-five minute walk at lunch.
Wind of leaves blew bare
each bow not stripped
Home:
- Wash dishes, vacuum
- Check out ratpoison
Done.
http://www.nongnu.org/ratpoison/
Not for me.
- Check out subtle wm
Done.
http://subtle.subforge.org/
Looks promising.
I have become pretty attached to fvwm....
Tried subtle. Not a success.
- Check out notion wm
Done.
http://notion.sourceforge.net/
Not terrible, but it will take a *lot* of customization to work for me.
No, would take too much customization to make it useful, and even then it wouldn't be better than fvwm.
Damn it, I wish wmii was still maintained. It has the best freakin' window object model.
- Herbstluftwm?
http://www.herbstluftwm.org/
Hmmm.
Interesting.
A lot like wmii.
I like the config mechanism maybe even better than wmii.
herbstluftwm might be the one (and it really rolls right off the tongue)!
Yeah, herbstluftwm is way, way more comfortable for a wmii lover than anything else I've tried (including i3, which doesn't resemble the functionality of wmii no matter what they claim). Also: seasonal.
herbstluftwm is my new window manager. Nice.
I need to figure out how to add the load average to herbstluftwm's panel.
cat /proc/loadavg | awk '{ print $1, $2, $3 }'
Done and committed.
I should check out ncmpcpp as a music player.
