And how to make this panel mouse-clickable I wonder?įor me, urxvt is too bare-bones of a terminal. Now, where is the number of tags set? I would like 9 tags instead of 6. OK, I got the panel up to twice its height and the font up to a comfortable 16-point (changed lines 17 and 18 of panel.sh): panel_height=32įont="-*-fixed-medium-*-*-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" The panel is a bash script in ~/.config/herbstluftwm/panel.sh. I figured out how to change the panel height and font size. The font size on the panel is super tiny for my aging eyes – I use about twice this size for the panel in dwm. OK, I can see the bold vs dim font now if I look closely. (But if someone wanted to change it – it is “super” easy to do – only one entry in the autostart file.) I had to did deeper in my parts bins to find a newer one with the windows key, because it was driving me crazy, though I can’t remember the specifics of what were the program(s) involved. I used it on an old keyboard – without windows key (what would that be? 30-years-old?). Otherwise, it’s dimmer.Īlt as mod key conflicted with program keybindings, if I remember correctly. If a program is running on a tag, the tag is bold. The capability of updating configuration on the fly is still a key distinguishing feature… I would not worry about the fact that these changes would make it look and behave more like DWM. I believe that making some reasonable changes like the above and some other will make Herbstluftwm somewhat more streamlined and useful… I believe in the current default config of Herbstluft wm such keybinding or function does not exist. with web browser for a longer time, this feature is really handy. ![]() Just as DWM has ALT+b, which hides bar and allows the programs to use the entire real estate of the screen automatically. – I would add the keybinding for hiding the bar. So if antiX is also for very old computers, ‘Windows’ key as the most important and most used key in such WM is not optimal. The main reason for this would be that old keyboards with old computers do not have ‘Windows’ key. – The MOD Key – It is better to change from current default as ‘Win’ ‘superkey’ to ALT. – The default terminal change to something like ROXTerm, which is more useful. – The bar (the bar on top) tag mappings – to streamline and add windows status indicators in them, ![]() Having given a bit more thought and following Christophe’s suggestions I also think a subtle wallpaper would be good to have…Īlso, in terms of low hanging fruit, if establishing more streamline default keybindings and basic config is to be understood as part of configuration anticapitalista asks about and not some flashy and fancy customization, then I do agree that some such understood configuration would be beneficial. If you think it should be configured, let us know how.
