Synopsis

My personal xmonad and xmobar configuration (Haskell)

Description

Because I use them together, I keep the configuration for both xmonad and xmobar in the same .xmonad directory. This is a repo of my work on these files.

The PNG files in util/resources are the sources of the XPM bitmaps in resources. You can use these to work on artwork if you like.

Getting it

If you want to use this repo as-is, not just for inspiration, it's intended to be cloned into the customary .xmonad dot-directory. A symlink can then be used to let xmobar find its config file. Do this:

$ cd
$ darcs clone http://hub.darcs.net/dino/xmonad-xmobar-conf .xmonad
$ ln -s .xmonad/xmobarrc .xmobarrc

You will then need to edit the iconRoot field in .xmonad/xmobarrc to reflect your home directory.

Icon artwork and licensing

All of the icon artwork originals (in the util/resources directory) were acquired from IconArchive with the exception of gnome_cpu_24.png, which came from findicons.com. They were then converted to XPM by me with the GIMP.

The original PNG files are included and the breakdown of licensing for these files is as follows:

Building from source

Around 2017-06-26 I experienced a build failure on Arch Linux with stale libraries in the default, systemwide ghc. There were linker errors in the xmonad.errors build log. Some searching brought me to this page and it may be good to keep this around, an "emergency" dynamic binary compilation command:

  $ cd ~/.xmonad
  $ ghc --make xmonad.hs -i -ilib -dynamic -fforce-recomp -main-is main -v0 -o xmonad-x86_64-linux
