• My (challenging) experience building a window switcher for Ubuntu

  As the author of QuickTile, which is written in Python but even closer to what you describe than a window manager would be, I have to say that, yeah, doing X11 stuff takes a lot of knowledge that's not ideally documented in non-print sources. Source: over 1 year ago

• Rust's problematic reliance on GitHub

  Actually, I plan to add a .nojekyll file and then use something like Pelican with custom plugins, then set GitHub Actions to run my update.sh on push... Similar to how http://ssokolow.com/quicktile/ is a Sphinx-based site hosted on GitHub Pages and automatically regenerated from the pushed sources. Source: about 2 years ago

• tilling wm on elementary os ?

  I've been using ssokolow.com/quicktile for this purpose, it does what I need and doesn't replace the wm. Source: about 2 years ago

• Converting an array, slice or vector to base58 encoding WITH check

  The best I could do for the API documentation for this project of mine was to use the automodule directive to autogenerate at the coarsest level possible and remember to never create new .py files if I could possibly avoid it. Source: almost 3 years ago

• [Media] shrs: a shell that is configurable and extensible in rust

  Hey everyone 👋 ! I'm currently working on a rust library for building and configuring your own shell! It's inspired by projects like xmonad and penrose where the configuration of the program is done in code. This means that for example, instead of using Bash's arcane syntax for configuring the prompt, it can be configured instead using a rust builder pattern! The project itself is still at a very young stage, so... Source: about 1 year ago

• What LaTeX setup do you use?

  There are a few other things I could mention, but there are more like side issues, and not relevant to my actual LaTeX setup. First and foremost—and thus perhaps noteworthy after all—is bibliography management with arxiv-citation (see here for more words). This is integrated very well with the XMonad window manager, which makes it even more of a joy to use. Source: over 1 year ago

• How to map arrows keys to CapsLock+(h,i,j,k) shortcuts in i3

  Another way to do it (and works on Linux and other platforms) is with XMonad, defining Caps Lock as a layer key. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Can ISTP like abstract things and theories?

  I tried it once, it was alright. https://xmonad.org/ But I prefer to build my own. Source: almost 2 years ago

• What exactly is a tiling window manager?

  Here is another tiling wm with screenshots: Https://xmonad.org/. Source: about 2 years ago
