Usage

To use dwm, dmenu, dwmblocks, st, and slock, simply launch them from your terminal or from my dotfiles’ startup script.

  • To launch dwm, run exec dwm in your .xinitrc or .xsession file.
  • To launch dmenu, press ProprietaryKey p to run the dwm dmenu_run command.
  • Dwmblocks is automatically loaded through my dwm’s startup script when you launch dwm.
  • To launch st, press ProprietaryKey y.
  • To launch slock, run slock in dmenu.

Configuration

After installing dwm, dmenu, dwmblocks, st, and slock, you can customize their configuration by editing the corresponding config.h files. You can find these files in the dwm/, dmenu/, and dwmblocks/ directories, respectively.

Here are some examples of configurations you can modify:

  • Add or remove key bindings for dwm in the config.def.h file in the dwm/ directory.
  • Change the font and color scheme for dmenu in the config.def.h file in the dmenu/ directory.
  • Add or remove status modules for dwmblocks in the blocks.def.h file in the dwmblocks/ directory.
  • Customize the colors and fonts for st in the config.def.h file in the st/ directory.
  • Configure slock options, such as the the time delay, in the config.def.h file in the slock/ directory.
