## dwm - dynamic window manager
-> dwm is an extremely fast, small, and dynamic window manager for X.
## Requirements
-> In order to build dwm you need the Xlib header files.
## Installation
-> Edit config.mk to match your local setup (dwm is installed into
the /usr/local namespace by default).
-> Afterwards enter the following command to build and install dwm (if
necessary as root):
make clean install
## Running dwm
-> Add the following line to your .xinitrc to start dwm using startx:
exec dwm
-> In order to connect dwm to a specific display, make sure that
the DISPLAY environment variable is set correctly, e.g.:
DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec dwm
-> (This will start dwm on display :1 of the host foo.bar.)
-> In order to display status info in the bar, you can do something
like this in your .xinitrc:
while xsetroot -name "`date` `uptime | sed 's/.*,//'`"
do
sleep 1
done &
exec dwm
## Configuration
-> The configuration of dwm is done by creating a custom config.h
and (re)compiling the source code.
