This is suckless, mmmbud, the source code is the documentation! Check out [config.h ](config.h ).

Okay, okay, actually I keep a readme in `larbs.mom` for my whole system, including the binds here.

Press < kbd > super+F1< / kbd > to view it in dwm (zathura is required for that binding).

I haven't kept `man dwm` /`dwm.1` updated though. PRs welcome on that, lol.

sudo make install
```
2022-05-26 16:19:10 +00:00
There is also a `PKGBUILD` usable on distributions with pacman. Run `makepkg -si` instead of `sudo make install` .
### You must also install `libxft-bgra`!

This build of dwm does not block color emoji in the status/info bar, so you must install [libxft-bgra ](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libxft-bgra/ ), which fixes a libxft color emoji rendering problem, otherwise dwm will crash upon trying to render one. Hopefully this fix will be in all libxft soon enough.
