• [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: 12 months 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: about 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's the good window manager for a beginner?

  As far as wms go, I always liked fluxbox and xmonad. Openbox has its fans, and i3 is very popular. I prefer a de over a wm but I know a lot of people use i3. Source: about 2 years ago

• Yode-Nvim - Focused Code Editing for NeoVim

  I had little success with manual splits because I was busy resizing most of the time. Therefore the idea with windows that are always as big as their content. The code for the windows is already built so that the logic per tab is interchangeable, how the windows should behave. You just have to implement more layouts, as I call them. The concept comes from Xmonad. In this link you can see examples when you scroll... Source: about 2 years ago

• I want to test Window Managers over the holidays. I started with ratpoison. So i would like to get some recommandations for interesting Window Managers to test from you guys. Thanks

  Try xmonad. Haven’t used it myself, but know several people (IRL) that use or used it. Seemed to work well, as far as I was told. Source: over 2 years ago

• Any window manager guides?

  I would also suggest i3 like the others for most people but if you do have some programming experience then you could also take a look at qtile that is written and configured in Python or xmonad written and configured in Haskell. Source: over 2 years ago

• 7 Useful Tools Written in Haskell

  Xmonad is a tile window manager for X Window System, written in Haskell. The distinctive feature of this tile manager is that it’s configured in Haskell, too, which allows us to use all features of the language. Thus, while configuring the window manager, you can add weather forecast data, measure the system condition, etc. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

• Hello, I need a suggestion

  Or you could go the Debian route.There's a Debian MATE version you could try. Or go the Minimal Debian netinstall and put a tiling window manager on it. My favorites are Awesome Window Manager and xmonad. Source: over 2 years ago

• Lots of hype about Functional lately, but how can it become more viable?

  Most of what you've said is demonstrably false. There's plent of "complete programs" written in functional languages. For example, the Xmonad window manager is written in Haskell. Source: almost 3 years ago

• An Idea about Offering help in this subreddit -- xmobar part

  Xmonad-contrib is fairly huge; and the person-hours needed to parse through the modules and organize them could be spent doing other much-needed things: updating the website (which just got a new look today), moving and updating the wiki, preparing more frequent releases, improving the docs...
