# Personal linux configuration files
These are my config files. I use linux with suckless's dynamic window manager
(dwm), it's nothing too fancy, just a nice wallpaper and a black status bar on
the bottom to show basic information.
To write code generaly I use vim (neovim) and tmux, here is a screenshot
debugging [6502 emulator](https://github.com/mjkloeckner/6502)
## Lockscreen
As a lockscreen I use a
[script](https://github.com/klewer-martin/scripts/blob/inspiron/lockscreen)
(wrapper of i3lock) that I made to mimic the lockscreen of Win 11:
## Applications that I use
- **OS**: Arch linux
- **Shell**: Zsh for user, dash linked to /bin/sh
- **Window manager**: [dwm fork](https://github.com/mjkloeckner/dwm)
- **dwm status**: [dwmblocks-async](https://github.com/UtkarshVerma/dwmblocks-async)
- **Application launcher**: [dmenu fork](https://github.com/mjkloeckner/dmenu)
- **Term**: kitty and [my fork](https://github.com/mjkloeckner/dmenu) of
suckless's simple terminal (st) on my laptop
- **Term font**: JetBrainsMono Nerd Font
- **dwm bar (and dmenu) font**: [Victor Mono Regular](https://rubjo.github.io/victor-mono/)
and JoyPixels for emojis
- **Editor**: vim (neovim)
- **vim colorscheme**: gruvbox
- **Web browser**: Firefox
- **Login manager**: none, autologin on tty1 and starting Xorg from zsh with the
following statement:
```console
# Starts the X server only on tty1
if [[ -z "$DISPLAY" ]] && [[ $(tty) = /dev/tty1 ]]; then
startx 2> /dev/null
logout
fi
```
- **Lockscreen**: i3lock custom [script](https://github.com/klewer-martin/scripts/blob/inspiron/lockscreen)
- **Notifications**: Dunst
- **Blue light filter**: redshift
- **Compositor**: jonaburg's picom fork (adds animations when changing
workspaces in dwm)
- **Applications theme**: adwaita
- **Video player**: mpv
- **pdf viewer**: zathura
## Arch linux package installation
### Display server and graphics libraries
Starting from a vanilla arch linux installation you will need, first Xorg server
and some basic fonts
```
# pacman -S xorg xorg-server xorg-xinit ttf-dejavu ttf-joypixels
```
also make sure to install your graphics card drivers as well as common graphics
libraries, in the case of integrated intel hd graphics:
```
# pacman -S xf86-video-intel mesa mesa-utils
```
### System
```
# pacman -S zsh dash base-devel ssh git openssh xss-lock xbindkeys xcape dunst \
man-db man-pages
```
read more about why [dash](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dash) on the arch
wiki
#### Zsh plugins installation
Run the following commands to clone the plugins into the zsh plugged folder,
then it should be sourced automatically from the .zshrc file
##### [zsh-autosuggestions](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions)
```
$ git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions \
~/.config/zsh/plugged/zsh-autosuggestions
```
##### [zsh-history-substring-search](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-history-substring-search)
```
$ git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-history-substring-search \
~/.config/zsh/plugged/zsh-history-substring-search
