WM Copycats\n===================\n\n-------------------------\nThemes for Awesome WM 4.x\n-------------------------\n\n:Author: Luca CPZ\n:Version: git\n:License: BY-SA_\n:Source: https://github.com/lcpz/awesome-copycats\n\nDescription\n===========\n\nA set of themes for the Awesome_ window manager, version 4.x.\n\nSee branches_ for previous versions.\n\nPurpose\n=======\n\nThe main purpose of this repository is to spread ready to use configurations, which can also serve as a cookbook for customisation.\n\nA secondary aim is to add new themes only when they constitute different UI/UX designs.\n\nFeatures\n========\n\n- Modularity\n- Autohide widgets\n- Autostart windowless processes\n- Fast MPD and volume shortcuts (first time this trick has been used in Awesome)\n- Shortcuts for copying to the clipboard, toggle wiboxes, widgets popups, screenshots capture, moving and magnifying clients\n- Quake drop-down terminal\n- Calendar with current day highlighted and months switch with a click/scroll\n- Notifications for new mails, current song, volume level, hdd critical state, low battery\n- OpenWeatherMap integration\n- Net carrier status notifier\n- Symbolic tag names\n- DWM-like textual layoutbox\n- Cairo wibar\n- Custom layouts\n- No borders when there's only one visible client\n- Freedesktop.org compliant menu and desktop icons\n- Vi-like client focus\n- Non-empty tag browsing\n- On-the-fly useless gaps resize\n- Dynamic tagging\n\nGallery\n=======\n\n**Multicolor**, inspired by lucamanni_\n\n.. image::

http://dotshare.it/public/images/uploads/553.png\n\n**Dremora**\n\n.. image:: http://dotshare.it/public/images/uploads/652.png\n\n**Rainbow**\n\n.. image::

http://dotshare.it/public/images/uploads/655.png\n\n**Vertex**, requested by swordfischer_\n\n.. image:: http://dotshare.it/public/images/uploads/1432.jpg\n\nInstallation\n============\n\n.. code-block:: shell\n\n    git clone --recurse-submodules --remote-submodules --depth 1 -j 2 https://github.com/lcpz/awesome-copycats.git\n    mkdir -p ~/.config/awesome \u0026\u0026 mv -bv awesome-copycats/{*,.[^.]*} ~/.config/awesome \u0026\u0026  rm -rf awesome-copycats\n\nIn case you do not want the Git files, use the following as the second command:\n\n.. code-block:: shell\n\n    mv -bv awesome-copycats/* ~/.config/awesome; rm -rf awesome-copycats\n\nUsage\n=====\n\nThe modular structure allows to\n\n* set variables\n* define startup processes\n* change keybindings and layouts\n* set client properties\n\nin ``rc.lua``, and\n\n* configure widgets\n* define wiboxes and screen settings\n\nin ``theme.lua``, so that you just need to change ``chosen_theme`` variable in ``rc.lua`` to preserve your preferences *and* switch the theme, instead of having file redundancy.\n\nJust do the following:\n\n.. code-block:: shell\n\n    $ cd ~/.config/awesome\n    $ cp rc.lua.template rc.lua\n\nThen, set the variable ``chosen_theme`` in ``rc.lua`` to your preferred theme, do your settings, and restart Awesome (``Mod4 + ctrl + r``).\n\nTo customize a theme, head over to ``themes/$chosen_theme/theme.lua``.\n\nOtherwise, if you want to be synced with upstream, modify the theme path in ``rc.lua`` like this:\n\n.. code-block:: diff\n\n    -beautiful.init(string.format(\"%s/.config/awesome/themes/%s/theme.lua\", os.getenv(\"HOME\"), chosen_theme))\n    +beautiful.init(string.format(\"%s/.config/awesome/themes/%s/theme-personal.lua\", os.getenv(\"HOME\"), chosen_theme))\n\nthen, copy ``theme.lua`` to ``theme-personal.lua`` and do your customizations there.\n\nThis way, you can safely ``git pull`` anytime.\n\nNotes\n=====\n\nComplements are provided by lain_ and freedesktop_. **Be sure** to satisfy their dependencies_. In particular, mail_ and weather_ widgets have **mandatory** arguments.\n\nThe fonts used in the screenshots are: Terminus_ (Multicolor, Powerarrow, Powerarrow Dark), Roboto_ (Holo, Vertex) and Tamzen_ (other ones).\n\nAs taglist font, Blackburn and Dremora use Icons_, Vertex uses FontAwesome_: be sure to have bitmaps enabled if running under Debian or Ubuntu_.\n\nEvery theme has a colorscheme_.\n\nAdditional default software used: ::\n\n    amixer dmenu librewolf mpc mpd scrot unclutter xbacklight xsel slock\n\n.. _BY-SA: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0\n.. _Awesome: http://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome\n.. _branches: https://github.com/lcpz/awesome-copycats/branches\n.. _lucamanni: https://github.com/lucamanni/awesome\n.. _romockee: https://github.com/romockee/powerarrow\n.. _ok100: http://ok100.deviantart.com/art/DWM-January-2013-348656846\n.. _amouly: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1307158#p1307158\n.. _swordfischer: https://github.com/lcpz/awesome-copycats/issues/53\n.. _foozer: http://dotshare.it/dots/499\n.. _lain: https://github.com/lcpz/lain\n.. _freedesktop: https://github.com/lcpz/awesome-freedesktop\n.. _Terminus: http://terminus-font.sourceforge.net\n.. _Roboto: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto\n.. _Tamzen: https://github.com/sunaku/tamzen-font\n.. _Icons: https://github.com/lcpz/dots/tree/master/.fonts\n.. _FontAwesome: https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome\n.. _Ubuntu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fonts#Enabling_Bitmapped_Fonts\n.. _colorscheme: https://github.com/lcpz/dots/tree/master/.colors\n.. _dependencies: https://github.com/lcpz/lain/wiki#dependencies\n.. _mail: https://github.com/lcpz/lain/wiki/mail\n.. _weather: https://github.com/lcpz/lain/wiki/weather\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcopycat-killer%2Fawesome-copycats","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fcopycat-killer%2Fawesome-copycats","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcopycat-killer%2Fawesome-copycats/lists"}
