Update kitty config
Some nice changes here, although I may stick to alacritty for now since
it seems to be faster and I can focus on using tmux instead of having
multiple ways to manage windows.

Remove xinit
No need for .xinitrc since I use Wayland now.

Remove sxhkd
Ditching bspwm+sxhkd admittedly makes my setup a bit more simple, which
I like. I also like how sway supports multiple monitors out of the box.

Remove bspwm
It's the end of an era and I no longer use bspwm. Although the tiling of
bspwm was admittedly cool, at the end of the day most of my time isn't
spent opening new windows so working with the i3-like sway instead works
just fine.

Remove tari-core meta package
Having a meta package was cool and it got the job done, but it's
inconvenient to use when adding and removing a lot of packages.

One alternative I'm looking at is simply keeping track of all the
explicitly installed packages and storing that in a text file. This
makes it easy to keep track of all the installed packages without
introducing downsides, and new machines that don't need certain
packages can simply delete those lines.

Simplify neofetch config
As of now I am largely uninterested in customizing neofetch to look
completely different, although time will tell if I stay true to this
stance. As of now, however, showing an image is enough.

rtv has been archived for a while now so I'm removing it for
simplicity.

Remove dunst
dunst actually has Wayland support but I'd like to try something else
for now, possibly something more "sway-like".

Remove compton
Over time compton became unmaintained and a replacement package picom
took its place. After trying out sway for a bit, I realized that it
doesn't need a separate compositor at all like bspwm does, so I might
just switch to it. Note that there is a performance penalty on sway
that I haven't figured out how to solve yet.

Remove evince
evince actually uses less memory than zathura and seems to be more
efficient overall, although it isn't as customizable as zathura and
not as minimal in terms of UI.

Overall, I'd rather just use zathura, which also lets me be more
consistent in my bspwm setup.

Apparently gnome-books and sushi depend on evince, the first of which
is a GUI for djvu/epub files and the second of which lets you preview files
with the spacebar in the file explorer. Ironically, I've never used this
feature until I read about it, and although it seems cool, I don't think
I have a use for it as I've been opening my files normally for years now.

Some of these packages I don't use anymore. I've gone ahead and removed
them here.

Remove old tmux colors
Some of these settings, specifically the window-status ones, produced
error messages in more recent versions of tmux. I've gone ahead and
simplified everything to the default colors since they work pretty well
already.

Remove ctrl+alt keybindings from kitty
Since I don't use urxvt anymore (which I assume is where I got the
ctrl+alt from), I no longer confuse the two.

Remove custom mozilla.cfg
At some point some of these settings stopped working. I'd rather not
deal with the cost of maintaining everything so I'm just removing it
for now.

Remove bspwm-round-corners-git

cool at the time.

Switch from yay to paru
Paru is a new AUR helper written in Rust. The main difference between
it and Yay (written in Go) is that the code is supposed to be cleaner.

archlinux: Add vim and dhcpcd to install-scripts
These packages aren't included by default anymore so adding them here
makes sense. Note that maintaining a large meta package is actually
difficult since one error means the whole thing doesn't work.

I am looking for an alternative solution to keep things somewhat
automated while at the same time increase flexibility when it comes
to the initial setup.

I actually wrote this in 2018 but never committed it. Might as well do
that now. The extensions it installs are uBlock Origin, Vimium, and
HTTPS Everywhere.

meta: Miscellaneous updates
I wanted to commit some more stuff for 2020. Better late than never,
right? The most significant change is probably in fish_prompt.fish.
I fixed an edge case where the directory in question could be the
same as the user's username.

This abbreviation is useful when you change your color scheme with
wal and plan to or have multiple kitty windows open (since kitty

archlinux: Remove shantz-xwinwrap-bzr
Since animated desktop backgrounds are more of a hassle to maintain than
they are worth, I've gone ahead and removed xwinwrap. If you are running
bspwm and still want an animated desktop background, use:

xwinwrap -g 3840x2160 -ov -- mpv -wid WID --loop inf your.video

For reference, you can use xwinwrap with any resolution you want, not
just your screen size. mpv will also accept pretty much any animated
format out there.

docs: Clean up README
Since most of the README wouldn't be relevant to most users anyway,
I've gone ahead and removed it. In the future I may consider writing
a brief guide on how to set up certain things, but for now I'm focusing
more on the dotfiles and bootstrap aspect itself instead of trying to
treat everything as a collective whole.

meta: Change repository name from .files to dotfiles
It turns out that using a literal dot instead of the word dotfiles has a
negative impact on the discoverability of the repository. Since the
directory name can be changed to .files when running `git clone`, this
gives us the freedom to name the repository however we please.

meta: Add full variable DPI support
This *should* complete the process of adding full variable DPI support
to an X session. The X DPI is now set dynamically and changes on
resolution change, making this setup easy to deploy to both traditional
and HiDPI environments.

bspwm: Set DPI before starting polybar

xeventbind: Set a default Xft.dpi if none is found

xresources: Don't explicitly set DPI
This caused some problems when the ~/.Xresources DPI was 192 and the
screen resolution was 96 DPI. Since I now know how to manipulate cursor
size even after X is started, manually setting Xft.dpi in ~/.Xresources
to 96 or 192 DPI is no longer needed.
