Vincent Bernat's awesome configuration -------------------------------------- This is my [awesome](http://awesome.naquadah.org) configuration. It does not exactly feature the same keybindings as the default configuration. I don't recommend using it by you can pick anything you need in it. I rely on machine hostname for some configuration parts (see `rc/start.lua`) for the most important part. Here some of the things you may be interested in: - It is modular. I am using `config` as a table to pass different things between "modules". - In `rc/start.lua`, there is a `xrun` function which runs a program only if it is not already running. Instead of relying on tools like `ps`, it looks at the list of the connected clients with `xwininfo`. Seems reliable. - I use a light transparency effect to tell if a window has the focus or not. It needs a composite manager. - I use a Python script `bin/build-wallpaper` to build the wallpaper to be displayed. There is a random selection and it works with multihead setup. It seems that classic tools are now able to change the wallpaper per screen and therefore, the script may seem a bit useless but I keep it. - I am using `xautolock` + `i3lock` as a screensaver. Nothing fancy but I reuse the wallpaper built above. - In `rc/theme.lua`, you may be interested by the way I configure GTK2 and GTK3 to have an unified look. It works and it does not need `gnome-control-center`. - I am sharing tags between screen with [sharetags](http://awesome.naquadah.org/wiki/Shared_tags). I am also giving names to tags: I access them with something like `config.tags.emacs`.
