Some quality scrots! Cheers, everyone.

Well, configuring openbsd-cwm is a tremendous waste of time! :monkey:

Since I'm essentially relearning everything as if it was the first time, this ended up being at least two and a half hours of work, and the only noticeable difference is the addition of jgmenu, conky and compton. I also added a left gap so windows won't hide the panel, I've switched to xfce4-panel which I think is being ignored by cwm's app-switcher (I hope so, I hate that the panel can steal focus), some default keybinds to start my most used apps have been added, autostart now includes polkit, I installed xserver-xorg-input-synaptics and have touchpad click working via synclient, and I've installed bunsen-exit (what a great utility).

^ Sounds like S&M-OS

Like I said, you can configure Cinnamon within an hour even if you've never used it before, and the additional 350M RAM it takes is fairly trivial. You could do the same with Bunsenlabs and only add ~70M RAM to the cwm desktop I have. Still, it's cool to get back to tinkering, and it's satisfying when you finally fix an issue (and maddening when you can't). Neither session seems to be interfering with the other, so no harm no foul. There are worse ways to spend a few hours at home.

Plus, it's a nice desktop, even at this early stage.

Exactly! I enjoy your posts:) Always something new to see.

Or SadOS (the colors!).

With some guesswork on what version of firefox might run where, managed to get my expensiveClock to run with vbox/Debian, wsl1/Debian and on whatever/pi3 is running. Wallpaper svg.

@PackRat: What is that uxterm color scheme? (nice)

I installed Lithium recently on a new modest box and it runs smoothly, thanks to the help of this forum

I like the original colorscheme, so I customized Tint2, the Openbox theme and the wallpaper after it, in order to keep that Bunsenlabs flavour with a minimal different design.

damo · 2020-12-17 16:56:15

^ Very nice and subdued. I like it a lot

Uh, hell yeah.

Your first post in the Monthly thread, @korax? A forum newbie? Consider yourself micro-defrosted. My pick for Scrot of the Month. We don't pick a Scrot of the Month, but if we did!?!!

Now please link that wallpaper. And tell us what the Openbox theme is. And post your tint2 config and icon set. And bring us... A SHRUBBERY!!!

korax_nyx · 2020-12-18 14:27:03

Thank you very much, I have to make some time to put everything in Github and I'll leave the link here.

All the best.

korax_nyx · 2020-12-18 16:38:24

Hi again, I put the modified Openbox theme referenced above, a couple of wallpapers and Tint2 config here.

https://github.com/koraxnyx/bunsenlabs

I uploaded everything via web in a hurry from a machine without git installed, so the Openbox theme is zipped for convenience. It's a slightly modified version of the great Fleon theme.

In order to get rounded corners, you need to install Ibhagwan Picom fork as compositor https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom and use the compton.conf file provided with the rest of the files. If not, everything is the same, but without that rounded corners. The fork is light and stable in my machine.

Wallpapers tone modified to suit the theme. I don't know the original artists, sorry.

Regards.

Thanks for the follow up! That's the stuff...

^ Hot!

Before the New Year, I want to know... What is gYw and what is m?

The m has something to do with escape sequences for terminals:

# Colors
RED='\033[31m'
BLUE='\033[34m'
CYAN='\033[36m'
GREEN='\033[32m'
YELLOW='\033[33m'
END='\033[0;0m'
BOLD='\033[1m'

I think it's just part of the syntax.

I have seen "gYw" only ever in this particular terminal color showoff script. No idea.

Döbbie03 · 2020-12-19 19:49:16

dwm forever.

I have buggered around with other wm's lately including Nates tiler, dk but I keep coming back to dwm.

hhh · 2020-12-20 03:01:52

^ And you nailed it. Great scrot.
