I've been getting used to using cwm, putting together some basic configuration,
thinking about posting some kind of web article about it. I was curious if
anyone would want to comment on what I've put together so far:
--cut here--
$ cat .xsession
# Start DBUS
if [ -x /usr/local/bin/dbus-launch -a -z "${DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS}" ]; then
eval `dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-x11`
fi
# Set the screen saver
xset dpms 600 900 1200
# Enable screen lock (xidle needs to be in the background)
xidle -no \
-program "/usr/X11R6/bin/xlock -mode flame -lockdelay 60" \
-timeout 300 &
# Start the compositing manager
xcompmgr -n &
# Launch a few applications
xterm -geometry 160x48+0+0 -ls +sb &
xclock -digital -update 1 -geometry -0+0 &
xload -geometry +0-0 &
# Run the window manager
cwm
$ cat .cwmrc
command firefox firefox
command firefox-esr firefox-esr
command chromium chrome
command seamonkey seamonkey
command keepassxc keepassxc
$
--cut here---
I'm particularly looking for feedback regarding anything that's unnecessary,
or just wrong. Suggested additions would be valuable too.
TIA,
