meta: Add executable bit to bspwmrc and other scripts
After a considerable amount of research, I finally understand how to use
chmod and what file permissions in linux actually mean.

It turns out that git can commit both regular files (644 permission) and
executable files (755 permission). This is great since changing file
permissions manually after a git clone is no longer needed.

This useful feature is enabled by default, however, it seems like I
disabled it a long time ago. If this is you, simply re-enable it by
setting `filemode` to true in your .git/config.

bspwm

I use bspwm as my window manager of choice. My setup is optimized for HiDPI, so you will have to manually adjust the numbers if you aren't using a HiDPI display.

Dependencies

  • bspwm - Window manager
  • polybar - Panel
  • dunst - Notifications
  • rofi - Window switcher, application launcher, and dmenu replacement
  • sxhkd - Keybinds
  • rxvt-unicode-patched - Terminal with image support
  • termite - Terminal with true transparency, icon fonts, true color, and emoji support
  • python-pywal - A universal color scheme changer
  • feh - Used to set the background image

Installation

make package=bspwm

Usage

Either startx directly or use a display manager. Assuming you have the necessary dependencies installed, and assuming you configured your system properly, everything should just work.

Note

When you use wal to change the color scheme, add -o ~/.config/wal/done.sh to run the done script. The fish abbreviation w does this automatically for you.
