# Luke's build of dwm

## FAQ
|
|
|
|
> What are the bindings?
|
|
|
|
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 `super+F1` 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.
|
|
|
|
## Patches and features
|
|
|
|
- Clickable statusbar with my build of [dwmblocks](https://github.com/lukesmithxyz/dwmblocks).
|
|
- Reads xresources colors/variables (i.e. works with `pywal`, etc.).
|
|
- scratchpad: Accessible with mod+shift+enter.
|
|
- New layouts: bstack, fibonacci, deck, centered master and more. All bound to keys `super+(shift+)t/y/u/i`.
|
|
- True fullscreen (`super+f`) and prevents focus shifting.
|
|
- Windows can be made sticky (`super+s`).
|
|
- stacker: Move windows up the stack manually (`super-K/J`).
|
|
- shiftview: Cycle through tags (`super+g/;`).
|
|
- vanitygaps: Gaps allowed across all layouts.
|
|
- swallow patch: if a program run from a terminal would make it inoperable, it temporarily takes its place to save space.

## Installation for newbs
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/LukeSmithxyz/dwm
|
|
cd dwm
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Users of Arch-based distros can also install it from the AUR as [dwm-luke-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dwm-luke-git).
|
|
|
|
## Please 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/) from the AUR, 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.
