# Qtile Configuration

```

Optional patch

```bash

sudo patch /usr/lib/python3.*/site-packages/libqtile/drawer.py top_line.patch

```

## Customization

First you should refer to `env_example.py` for creating the `env.py`,

which is mainly about hardware devices and unique system environment.

It's yours, not mine. 😃

Although the lack of `env.py` does not cause qtile to crash on startup,

it's better to create one.

Most of the appearance settings are stored in `theme/`.

Create `theme/override.py` to override some default values

if you are satisfied with the default theme.

`control.py` is about keymappings and shortcuts.

`bar.py` focus on widgets on the bar.
