Update README
Used to daily drive with standalone window managers and barely has time to configure them. As much as I like the documented portions, it also takes time to maintain them. Time to remove them. :(

|

== Configured programs
|
||||
|
||||
Here's a list of the programs with details on the config found in this repo.
|
||||
Each of the listed directory is designed to be used/managed with https://www.gnu.org/software/stow/[GNU Stow] at the indicated target path.
|
||||
|
||||
Each of my configuration also tries to be visually consistent but it is only a secondary priority.
|
||||
For a color scheme, my main preference is https://www.nordtheme.com/[Nord].
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== https://github.com/jwilm/alacritty/[Alacritty]
|
||||
|
||||
Similar to https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty[Kitty] , it's a GPU-based terminal emulator.
|
||||
It's documentation for the configuration can be viewed at the config file itself being filled with comments.
|
||||
|
||||
* Config located at link:alacritty/[`alacritty/`] directory.
|
||||
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/alacritty/`.
|
||||
* Minimum version (from `alacritty --version`):
|
||||
** `alacritty 0.3.3`
|
||||
* Contains a single `alacritty.yaml` as the config file.
|
||||
Not much has changed except for the color scheme and the font being used.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== https://github.com/baskerville/bspwm[bspwm]
|
||||
|
||||
A minimalist window manager.
|
||||
Only provides a window manager and nothing else.
|
||||
|
||||
* Config located at link:bspwm/[`bspwm/`] directory.
|
||||
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/bspwm/`.
|
||||
* Minimum version (from `bspwm --version`):
|
||||
** `0.9.7-10-g2ffd9c1`
|
||||
* Simply contains `bspwmrc` which is an executable setting up bspwm-related settings and and starting up some applications.
|
||||
However, the "true" version is stored as a https://github.com/dylanaraps/pywal/wiki/User-Template-Files[template file] for pywal (located at link:wal/templates/bspwmrc[`wal/templates/bspwmrc`]).
|
||||
* This allows for a modular setup.
|
||||
For using keybindings, it uses `sxhkd` (Simple X Hotkey Daemon).
|
||||
For something similar to i3-bar, https://github.com/polybar/polybar[polybar] serves as the replacement.
|
||||
|
||||
To control the window manager, you should use `bspc`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== https://dunst-project.org/[Dunst]
|
||||
|
||||
It's a notification daemon used to display notifications sent by notifiers (programs that send messages/notifications).
|
||||
|
||||
* Config location is at link:dunst/[`dunst/`].
|
||||
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/dunst/`.
|
||||
* Minimum version (from `dunst --version`):
|
||||
** `Dunst - A customizable and lightweight notification-daemon 1.4.1 (2019-07-03)`
|
||||
* Simply contains a `dunstrc` configuring appearance of the notifications.
|
||||
Though, the "true" version of the config is located at link:wal/templates/dunstrc[`wal/templates/dunstrc`].
|
||||
|
||||
Look out for the related manual entry (i.e., `man dunst`) and the https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dunst[Arch Wiki entry].
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/[GNU Emacs]
|
||||
|
||||
Another text editor, of course.
|
||||
I finally bit the bullet with this one with the native support for https://orgmode.org/[Org Mode] as the biggest reason.
|
||||
(Is this going to be start of something sinister?)
|
||||
|
||||
* This package is really a https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs[Doom Emacs]-based configuration more than the vanilla config so you need to install it first before touching the config with your grubby hands.
|
||||
Just run the following command `git clone https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs ~/.emacs.d && ~/.emacs.d/bin/doom install` and it should take care of the rest.
|
||||
* Config located at link:emacs/[`emacs/`].
|
||||
* The ideal target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/doom`.
|
||||
* Minium version (from `emacs --version`):
|
||||
** `GNU Emacs 26.3`
|
||||
** For Doom Emacs, it's not particularly important since it's in rolling release but for future references, it is from the `develop` branch at commit https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs/commit/efa599f076c3a140c6b4006c352fdba3361abebd[`efa599f076c3a140c6b4006c352fdba3361abebd`] accessed at 2020-04-24.
|
||||
* The Doom configs are just the default config and some snippets (in `snippets/`) so there's not much to go through here.
|
||||
* Regarding theming Doom Emacs, I've found mainly two ways.
|
||||
** First is simply using https://gitlab.com/jjzmajic/ewal[ewal] but the resulting colors are not pretty IMO and I haven't found a way to customize it aside from forking and modifying the package itself.
|
||||
** Second is simply generating the Doom Emacs theme file myself;
|
||||
I have a https://gitlab.com/foo-dogsquared/doom-theme-generator[small script] that is generates one from the Pywal color scheme.
|
||||
** Or simply don't and use https://gitlab.com/protesilaos/modus-themes[modus-themes] instead for that light customization options.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== https://github.com/gokcehan/lf[lf]
|
||||
|
||||
A http://ranger.github.io/[ranger]-inspired terminal file manager.
|
||||
https://godoc.org/github.com/gokcehan/lf[Here's the documentation for it.]
|
||||
|
||||
* Config located at link:lf/[`lf/`] directory.
|
||||
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/lf/`.
|
||||
* Minimum version (from `lf --version`):
|
||||
** `r14`
|
||||
* All of the config files are basically default config files except with a few personal changes.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== https://neovim.io/[Neovim]
|
||||
|
||||
A modern version of https://www.vim.org/[Vim], a modal text editor.
|
||||
footnote:[Migrated after I've seen https://lukesmith.xyz/[Luke-senpai] used it in his recent videos.
|
||||
Seriously though, I find nvim to be way better for configuration.]
|
||||
|
||||
* Config located at link:nvim/[`nvim/`] directory.
|
||||
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/nvim`.
|
||||
* Minimum version (from `nvim --version`):
|
||||
** `NVIM v0.4.3`
|
||||
* Uses https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug[`vim-plug`] as the plugin manager.
|
||||
* Contains my plugin list and editor configurations in `init.vim`.
|
||||
* There are also some https://github.com/sirver/UltiSnips[UltiSnips] snippets stored in `own-snippets` folder (since `snippets` is a reserved folder name).
|
||||
* One of the largest snippet file is the snippets for LaTeX files.
|
||||
It is based on https://github.com/gillescastel/latex-snippets/[_Gilles Castel_'s UltiSnips LaTeX snippets].
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== https://github.com/yshui/picom[picom]
|
||||
|
||||
A window compositor forked from https://github.com/chjj/compton[compton] that adds off-screen buffers and additional effects and animations to the window.
|
||||
Can be used for adding style to your setup.
|
||||
|
||||
This is formerly the Compton configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
* Config found at link:picom/[`picom/`] directory.
|
||||
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/picom`.
|
||||
* Minimum version (from `picom --version`):
|
||||
** `v7.2`
|
||||
* The config is copied from `/etc/xorg/picom.conf` and edited a few parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
For documentation, check out the manual entry (i.e., `man picom`) and the https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Picom[related Arch Wiki entry].
|
||||
The default configuration (located at `/etc/xdg/picom.conf` assuming at Arch Linux) can be helpful as well as it is filled with comments.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== https://github.com/polybar/polybar[polybar]
|
||||
|
||||
A tool for creating status bars.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the replacement bar from my previous i3-based setup.
|
||||
|
||||
* Config located at link:polybar[`polybar/`].
|
||||
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/polybar`.
|
||||
* Minimum version (from `polybar --version`):
|
||||
** `polybar 3.4.1`
|
||||
** `Features: +alsa +curl +i3 +mpd +network(libnl) +pulseaudio +xkeyboard`
|
||||
* There is only the standalone config (might decide to make it modular) and the launch script which is copied from the https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Polybar[related Arch Wiki entry].
|
||||
The theme is dynamically used with the Xresources file (by using `xrdb`).
|
||||
|
||||
For documentation, check out the https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Polybar[already linked Arch Wiki entry] and the https://github.com/polybar/polybar/wiki[official documentation from GitHub].
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== https://github.com/davatorium/rofi[Rofi]
|
||||
|
||||
The application switcher and launcher.
|
||||
Also serves as a replacement for https://tools.suckless.org/dmenu/[dmenu].
|
||||
|
||||
* Config located at link:rofi/[`rofi/`].
|
||||
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/rofi/`.
|
||||
* Minimum version (from `rofi -version`):
|
||||
** `Version: 1.5.4`
|
||||
* Main config is `config.rasi`.
|
||||
* Contains the config and my custom Rofi themes.
|
||||
|
||||
To see the documentation, check out the manual entry for `rofi`.
|
||||
For creating or editing Rofi themes, read the manual entry of `rofi-theme`.
|
||||
Also, view the related https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Rofi[Arch Wiki entry].
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== https://github.com/naelstrof/slop[slop]
|
||||
|
||||
A select operator for X-based systems with all the fanciful bell and whistles.
|
||||
|
||||
* Config located at link:slop[`slop`].
|
||||
* The usual target path is at `$HOME/.config/slop`.
|
||||
* Minimum version (from `slop --version`):
|
||||
** v7.5
|
||||
* It only contains customized selection shaders and whatnot that may be used for my custom scripts.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== https://github.com/baskerville/sxhkd[sxhkd]
|
||||
|
||||
Stands for "Simple X Hotkey Daemon".
|
||||
It is a hotkey daemon detecting certain X events primarily from the keyboard and mouse.
|
||||
|
||||
It is also very useful since it enables modular setup.
|
||||
Can be used independent of the desktop environment (DE) or the window manager (WM).
|
||||
|
||||
* Config located at link:sxhkd/[`sxhkd/`] folder.
|
||||
* The usual target path is at `$HOME/.config/sxhkd`.
|
||||
* Minimum version (from `sxhkd --version`):
|
||||
** `0.6.0-3-g7124055`
|
||||
* Contains a config file (`sxhkdrc`) for the keybindings.
|
||||
There are some keybindings specifically used for `bspwm`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== https://github.com/muennich/sxiv[sxiv]
|
||||
|
||||
A simple developer-oriented X image viewer with a lot of options for customization.
|
||||
|
||||
* Config located at link:sxiv/[`sxiv/`] directory.
|
||||
* The usual target path is at `$HOME/.config/sxiv`.
|
||||
* Minimum version (from `sxiv -v`):
|
||||
** `sxiv 26`
|
||||
* Contains custom keybindings (with `exec/key-handler`) and a configuration for the status bar (with `exec/image-info`).
|
||||
|
||||
sxiv has a manual (i.e., `man sxiv`) so that's convenient.
|
||||
I also recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYW9i_u5PYs[Luke Smith's video] introducing it.
|
||||
That's where I also heard of it.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=== https://www.zsh.org/[Zsh]
|
||||
|
||||
A Unix shell and an alternative to the Bash.
|
||||
Mostly chosen due to its wide options for customization compared to GNU Bash.
|
||||
|
||||
* Config found at link:zsh/[`zsh/`] directory.
|
||||
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/zsh`.
|
||||
You do have to set `ZDOTDIR=$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/zsh` at `/etc/zsh/zshenv` (requires root privilege) though.
|
||||
* Minimum version (from `zsh --version`):
|
||||
** `zsh 5.7.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)`
|
||||
* Contains `.zprofile` and `.zshrc`.
|
||||
The primary file to look for is the `.profile` to set environment variables independent of the shell setups.
|
||||
* Previously relied on https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/[oh-my-zsh].
|
||||
Eventually, the config became independent and can work without it.
|
||||
|
||||
For the documentation, check out the manual entry for `zsh` to gain an overview of the shell.
|
||||
The documentation itself is massive and comprehensive.
|
||||
The main manual explains some things such as the startup/shutdown files and compatibility with other shells.
|
||||
It also lays out the sections of the manual which you can check it out.
|
||||
|
||||
Since the manual has been split into multiple sections, it can be daunting to navigate.
|
||||
The most referred sections by far are `zshmisc` where it gives details on the miscellanea of zsh such as the prompt and special variables you might want to know.
|
||||
The other section is `zshbuiltins` where it explains built-in commands of zsh.
|
||||
|
||||
For coding with Zsh, look into the http://zsh.sourceforge.net/Doc/Release/index.html[Zsh Manual].
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
== Additional programs used
|
||||
|
||||
As much as possible, I use free and open source software (FOSS) for all of my needs.
|
||||
Not all of the items listed are FOSS, though.
|
||||

=== Command line tools
|
||||
|
||||
I still use https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/[GNU coreutils] and common Unix tools (e.g., https://curl.haxx.se/[cURL]) but it could be good to find some alternatives.
