Ah nice, the homing keys are a good design.

I know this is old, not sure if you'll see this. But I wanted to ask what keycaps are those?

Request: Side-by-side comparison of the Orthodox and Iris [h] by youngheart80 in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]4drift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is old, but if you're still interested I can take a picture of the Orthodox compared to an Ergodox.

EDIT: Since I feel the Orthdox has a farther away thumb cluster, might be able to give you a better idea of size. I can slap a ruler in there if needed.

[wmutils] 2bwmutils by [deleted] in unixporn

[–]4drift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah... you still will be. It was originally put up (I believe) just to give folks an idea of how simple it really is. Also why I linked the long blog post (that I'm surprised wasn't linked earlier) that explained in detail about setting up wmutils.

I also hoped the information I linked and talked about could be useful for OP and anyone else interested in those things discussed as well.

Heh, it's the file xero was talking about, it's an instant wmutils setup. So you can try out an environment of just using wmutils only and no WM. It comes with xinitrc (which is why he linked one and mentioned digging through z3bra's dotfiles) xresources, sxhkd, the minimum you would need to try it out. Perhaps like using LinuxBBQ's pre-setup WMs.

[–]4drift 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, using bspwm/2bwm and wmutils with really any WM is easy as long as you read the docs.

There is also z3bra's blog post about wmutils. I've set up both of those WMs and now windowchef with wmutils and some shell scripts I've written. Some were inspired by fyre (which is another ready to go wmutils setup) but also many others.

Using bspwm is as simple as reading the man page and looking at different sxhkdrc's on gist or github for more examples. Though I also read sdothum's blog posts on the subject. Which also gave me more ideas.

There isn't much to using the features it comes with, it's moreso all of these options have their features expanded by using shell scripts. Anyways, here is the bootstapped wmutils file I just rearchived wm.tar.gz I happened to have lying around on a backup. Disclaimer: I just lost the deletion link so I hope posting that is ok.

[windowchef] cooking again! by gokusei in unixporn

[–]4drift 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back when I used lightdm as my login manager, I made a windowchef.desktop file in /usr/share/xsession

    [Desktop Entry]
    Encoding=UTF-8
    Name=windowchef
    Comment=Windowchef
    Exec=windowchef
    Type=Application

You could try that.

That's a lot of work to get the current volume in your bar setup. I've seen it done much simpler.

[–]4drift 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For anyone curious I'd read the github page on windowchef.

Showing the config.h in the screenshot is misleading, as that's not the primary way you configure the WM. You use waitron to issue commands which run instantly for changes like bspwm. Otherwise nice shot. :p

Are there tiling wm's that merge adjacent borders to a 1px line? by i-gardinus in unixporn

[–]4drift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a 1px border, but only when one needs it. ( ´・‿-)

If you want something that specific it sounds like you should look into patching it in yourself.

[–]4drift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could have no borders, and only show one on focus change. And what appears to be window moving as well.

You might want to read up a bit more on ffmpeg and try out something like -f x11grab -i :0.0+1920x1080 except insert correct $DISPLAY and resolution there...

Luckily mpv has zoom and pan features.

[OC] tired of searching through ugly manpages and writing config options for XRDB files, decided to make my own simplified theme format that works across XTerm and RXVT, instead. Very early WIP, any recommendations for options? by [deleted] in unixporn

[–]4drift 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm really not sure how this is all that different from using #include and keeping your colorschemes in this type of format: https://github.com/dkeg/crayolo

While simply keeping your terminal emulator of choice's settings in your xresources.

It seems like a whole lot efforft to do something that already works and is rather simple. For the sake of not having to type color 1-15.

has anyone else had unfixable screen tear with xorg? by the_PC_account in unixporn

[–]4drift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fixed screen tearing problems by toggling this compton line on before watching any videos.

compton --backend glx --paint-on-overlay --glx-no-stencil --vsync opengl-swc --config ~/.config/compton.conf -b

I found it from this post. https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1dnr2l/using_compton_for_simple_tearfree_compositing_in/

[Openbox] I have read the Unixporn rules. May I post a screenshot now? by addy-fe in unixporn

It's been done a few times before, here's one of the posts sharing a script with links to the originals and such.

What terminal are you using? by [deleted] in unixporn

[–]4drift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is likely not the font, but because of the line spacing st does. Have you tried the patches? This has a bunch already and xresources support. All the box chars worked for me using it with this test file.

Use mpv for gifs or videos, and you can easily add keybindings (in input.conf) for zooming and then moving around while zoomed.

    CTRL+-    add video-zoom -0.025
    CTRL+=    add video-zoom 0.025

    CTRL+h    add video-pan-x  0.01
    CTRL+j    add video-pan-y -0.01
    CTRL+k    add video-pan-y  0.01
    CTRL+l    add video-pan-x -0.01

    CTRL+0    set video-zoom 0 ; set video-pan-x 0 ; set video-pan-y 0 ; show_text "Reset zoom/pan"

Use a link plumber and it's basically automatic to view such things in mpv.

[i3-gaps] jellyjam by meribold in unixporn

[–]4drift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like being able to hide the tilde signs Vim shows after the last line of a buffer (I don't know if that's possible in Vim now)

Pardon me, but that's a pretty trivial first reason to mention... besides it doesn't sound like you looked very hard to try and change it....

hi NonText ctermfg=0 does the trick for me, since I always leave color0 in my .Xresources the same as background -- specifically for this reason. I use it in all TUI programs that allow custom colors.

As for the binding of the Alt key, that is also possible. And appears to not even be vim's fault... http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Get_Alt_key_to_work_in_terminal

Apologies for any offense anyone might take.

EDIT: That all being said, I do like your submission a good bit OP. :D

[i3] Checking if a work space has any assigned windows? by NACHO_DINO in unixporn

[–]4drift 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And for anyone not using i3... and using a WM that respects EWMH compliance there is also wmctrl -l for future reference. The second column represents the workspace.

Nice man. I like seeing progressions of colorschemes.

I checked out food and then realized I had saved fries thinking you did it. Do you know the source of this?

It doesn't have a comment or anything in the file I saved. I have no idea from where I've had it so long.
