dwm - dynamic window manager ---------------------------- dwm is an extremely fast, small, and dynamic X11 window manager. Requirements ------------ In order to build dwm you need the Xlib header files. Installation ------------ Edit config.mk to match your local setup (dwm is installed into the /usr/local namespace by default). Afterwards enter the following command to build and install dwm (if necessary as root): cp config.default.h config.h make clean install Running dwm ----------- Add the following line to your .xinitrc to start dwm using startx: exec dwm In order to connect dwm to a specific display, make sure that the DISPLAY environment variable is set correctly, e.g.: DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec dwm (This will start dwm on display :1 of the host foo.bar.) In order to display status info in the bar, you can do something like this in your .xinitrc: while true do echo `date` `uptime | sed 's/.*://; s/,//g'` sleep 1 done | dwm Configuration ------------- The configuration of dwm is done by editing config.h.
