Luke's modified build of dwm

Patches and features

  • Clickable statusbar with my build of 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/pahlse/dwm
cd dwm
sudo make install

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, 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.
