# README in progress
# Joe's dwm (the dynamic window manager) laptop build
The original [dwm](https://dwm.suckless.org/) desktop manager build I used to run on my ThinkPad.
Based on version 6.2.
As I am not using dwm anymore, developpement on my build might stop on this version.
## Dependencies
#### Required:
`gcc`
`make`
`xorg`
`libX11`
`libXft`
#### Optional:
`st` find my custom improved build [here](https://github.com/JozanLeClerc/st-laptop)
`slock`
`dmenu`
## Installation
To install this open a terminal and run these commands:
```shell
git clone https://github.com/JozanLeClerc/dwm-laptop.git
cd dwm-laptop
sudo make clean install
```
To use it as a default WM, if you are using xinit, add this to your `.xinitrc`:
```shell
exec dwm
```
I am not shure about how to set it up on regular desktop managers like `gdm` or `lightdm`.
## Bindings
**"Window"** or **"tile"** is being called **"stack"** in this segment as it an apropriate name.
Some of the main key bindings:
- **switch** to workspace 1-10 with `super+{F1-F10}`
- **show all workspaces** at once with `super+F12`
- **move** selected stack to workspace 1-10 with `super+shift+{F1-F10}`
- **fire up** `st` terminal with `super+return`. See how to set it to another terminal emulator in [optional config](https://github.com/JozanLeClerc/dwm-laptop/blob/master/README.md#optional-config)
- **kill** selected stack with `super+q`
- **cycle through** stacks down/up with `super+j/k`
- **move** selected stack down/up with `super+shift+j/k`
- **resize** master stack to left/right with `super+h/l`
- **invoke** `dmenu_run` application launcher with `super+p`. Get it [here](https://tools.suckless.org/dmenu/)
- **invoke** `slock` screen locker with `super+shift+l`. Get it [here](https://tools.suckless.org/slock/)
- **invoke** `qutebrowser` if installed with `super+3`. See how to set it up to your favorite web browser in [optional config](https://github.com/JozanLeClerc/dwm-laptop/blob/master/README.md#optional-config)
- toggle **normal tiled mode** with `super+s`
- toggle **alternative tiled mode** with `super+shift+s`
- toggle **maximized mode** (monocle) on selected stack with `super+f`
- toggle **floating mode** on selected stack with `super+space`
- toggle **top bar** with `super+escape`. Hidden by default
- **exit** dwm with `super+shift+e`
## Optional config
You might want to change my `st` invocation to your terminal emulator of choice.
To do exactly this change:
```c
static const char *termcmd[] = { "st", NULL };
```
to:
```c
static const char *termcmd[] = { "your-beloved-terminal-emulator", NULL };
```
in `config.h` on **line 80**.
For web browsers change:
```c
static const char *qbcmd[] = { "qutebrowser", NULL };
```
to:
```c
static const char *qbcmd[] = { "your-favorite-web-browser", NULL };
```
in `config.h` on **line 81**.
## Patches
My own autostart script can be found under my [dotfiles](https://github.com/JozanLeClerc/dotfiles) repository. It should be placed in `~/.dwm` directory.
