Repository files navigation

dotfiles

Introduction

A collection of configs to be placed in the user's home directory usually prefixed with a period, hence the name dotfiles. This repo is actually intended for my personal backup, but everyone is welcome to use these resources. Maybe not always up to date with my current setup. I also put some explanations in this README file, because people say they are interested with my setup. I hope this will be useful. Also, please read what is written inside the files before use. And remember, copying configuration file doesn't make it instantly work πŸ˜‰

Preview

Openbox : Vinyl

preview-openbox
Openbox Theme : Arroundie (included in this repo). To get the rounded corner, you need openbox-patched (AUR). Or if you are on Debian, you can read this discussion on BunsenLabs Forum to get it.

Explanations

  • Openbox
    Some useful keybinds like snap window with useless gaps (super + arrows). MPC control using play/pause, next, previous, and stop keys. Super + number to switch workspace like in i3wm. Super + shift + number to send window to another workspace (also like in i3wm), and more keybinds. And a well commented autostart file is included. I only put one Openbox theme in this repo. My other Openbox themes is in Openbox Theme Collections.

  • Other WMs
    Pretty stock simple setup of i3, herbstluftwm, Bspwm, Fluxbox, Spectrwm, dwm & xfwm-standalone.

  • .profile and .xsessionrc
    They are scripts those executed by LightDM when you login to an X session. Previously I used .profile file when I'm still on Arch. But, I found that ~/.profile file is not executed by LightDM on Debian. So, I use ~/.xsessionrc file now (maybe .xsessionrc also works in Arch, I haven't tested it). It contains some commands to export ~/.bar, ~/.executor, ~/.notify, ~/.utility, and some other folders to $PATH. It's important if you want to use my configurations. Because I centralized most of the command to my $PATH. Exporting them to $PATH makes it so that the custom script in those folders can be launched without writing the absolute path. For example to launch Rofi, I just need to make a keybind to execute rofi-apps, instead of /home/addy/.utilty/rofi-apps.

  • Rofi
    My Rofi looks like this
    preview-rofi
    My rofi colour is set in ~/.Xresources, but it is just an #INCLUDE command. The actual colour configuration is in ~/.xrdb/rofi, you will understand if you look at it. And the launch configuration is in ~/.utility/rofi-apps. If you use my .profile or .xsessionrc, just make a keybind to execute rofi-apps to make your Rofi launch with appearance like this.

    preview-rofi2
    That's my rofi with dark colour.

  • obmenu-generator
    My Openbox menu is generated using obmenu-generator pipemenu. To use my scheme simply copy my scheme & config, then install obmenu-generator from AUR and type obmenu-generator -p and reconfigure Openbox. My menu scheme looks like this (result may vary)
    preview-obmenu
    Now Playing : Dream Theater - A Change of Seasons

  • Neofetch Just simple neofetch configuration. I made a shortcut called fetch to launch Neofetch with custom colour and logo.
    preview-neofetch
    When the colour accent of my theme is cyan I launch fetch -cyan.

    preview-neofetch2
    When the colour accent of my theme is froly I launch fetch -froly 😘
    You need w3m package to display image in terminal.

  • zshrc
    Contains my oh-my-zsh config. Including my minimalist oh-my-zsh themes (in ~/.oh-my-zsh folder). To use it, simply install oh-my-zsh, copy my .zshrc & .oh-my-zsh folder to your home. Then switch shell using chsh command. It also contains some useful alias, so please read before use πŸ˜‰

  • ~/.utility/ytmp3
    Just a helper to download mp3 from Youtube using youtube-dl, use the video title as ID3 metadata, then embed the thumbnail as albumart. To use it simply run ytmp3 <URL> for example ytmp3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpgNV4Nvetg
    preview-ytmp3

    But sometimes the thumbnail doesn't look nice, add -n flag to skip embed the albumart, for example ytmp3 -n https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpgNV4Nvetg. By the way I use Dream Theater song, The Bigger Picture for the example above. It's a great song, I recommend you to listen to it. The part 5 minutes to the end is one of the best parts of a song ever recorded in human history. It sums up every emotion then unleashes it.

  • ~/.executor
    A collections of scripts to generate status for tint2 executor. Example : tint2 in my Openbox screenshoot preview above is using these scripts to display weather and now-playing. But you can also use it for Polybar custom script, Lemonbar feeder, dzen2 feeder, Conky execi, or pipe it to Dunst, just use your creativity. And don't forget to read the script before use.

  • Xresources
    My configuration for URxvt, including copy paste support by Muennich. Hit Alt+C to copy, and Alt+V to paste (xsel package is needed). I put the colour configuration in ~/.xrdb folder and include it in Xresources using #include command. It makes me able to change or mix the colour scheme for urxvt, dmenu, and rofi easily. You will understand if you look at it. All of my favourite terminal colour schemes I frequently use on my setup is available in ~/.xrdb/color folder.

  • Compton
    Eye candy shadow. Also some useful "exclude" to avoid broken compositing.

  • Conky
    Not in this repo. My conky themes spreads everywhere in my other repos, Google Drive, and DeviantArt. I have a plan to merge them all to my Conky Themes Collections repo. But I still don't have enough time to do it now.

  • Tint2
    Just a single tint2rc, looks like my Openbox preview above. For my another Tint2 collections please check my Tint2 Themes Collections. You need tint2 with executor support, and consider to use backported tint2 from BunsenLabs repo if you are on Debian. Tint2 version in Debian repo is outdated (Upss, every packages in Debian repo is outdated actually 😜 )

  • termite
    My termite terminal emulator configuration with Nord colour scheme & Mostly-Bright colour scheme.

  • ncmpcpp
    A simple ncmpcpp config, with album art support. The album art script is taken from Marco. Slightly modified to get rid the transparency bug. To use ncmpcpp with album art, simply launch ncmpcpp -c .ncmpcpp/config-art or ncmpcpp -c .ncmpcpp/config-art-dark (make a shortcut for it for easy launch). Urxvt with pixbuf enabled is needed. You can get it from AUR, the package name is rxvt-unicode-pixbuf. For Debian user, You don't need, the URxvt in Debian repo is compiled with pixbuf by default.
    Also integrated with dunst notification (any notification daemon should be work, but I haven't tested it). Just copy my dunst config, install dunst, and do nothing. Dunst will launch automatically if triggered by notify-send event (except if You're not using Display Manager, add dunst & to your ~/.xinitrc). And because this is a hacky trick, the album art can't adapt to the terminal size πŸ˜₯

  • Skippy-XD
    If you don't know, Skippy-XD is a program to expose the stacked windows. I usually use it when I go taskbar-less.
    preview-skippy
    My Skippy-XD configuration looks like this, nothing special.

  • Geany
    Contains my configuration & colour scheme for Geany
    preview-geany
    My dark colour looks like this.

    preview-geany2
    And my light colour looks like this.

  • Vim
    Just a simple & plugin-less vimrc. Nothing special here, I'm not an IT guy πŸ˜”
    preview-vim
    Look like this.

  • Audacious
    Nothing special here.
    alt text
    Just a configuration to remove some components of Audacious, to make it looks minimal πŸ˜‹

  • gtk.css
    Add useless space wasting paddings for vte-based terminal, including termite & xfce4-terminal.

  • ~/.toys
    Boys love toys, so I include some toys I collected from Crunchbang Forum & Stark's Color-Scripts.
    alt text
    I frequently use them for terminal colour scheme show-off.

    alt text
    Also contains a script to launch URxvt with Pokemon background (URxvt with pixbuf enabled is needed). Use light terminal colour scheme first. It's super effective!

  • ~/.notify
    A set of commands to pipe my executor scripts to Dunst. When I go statusbar-less, I usually make keybinds to execute them.
    alt text
    In the screenshot above, I made keybinds to execute notify-weather, notify-music, and notify-ssid. It displays as notifications when I hit those keybinds.

  • ~/.utility/record
    A script to do a screenrecord using ffmpeg, so you don't need any external program. You just need ffmpeg and mkv codec, mostly autoinstalled when you have a multimedia player like VLC or MPV.
    alt text
    To use this, launch your rofi and hit Shift + Left to enter run mode (if you're using my rofi configuration). Search record and hit enter to start recording. If You want to end the recording session, launch your rofi again, hit Shift + Left, search for stop-recording then hit Enter. The video will be saved in ~/Videos/record.mkv. Rename it first before take another recording session πŸ˜‰

  • ~/.utility/screeny
    A script to take a screenshot using scrot, add date & time to the file name, move the result to ~/Pictures, then preview the result using Viewnior. Bind screeny command to your Print Screen button.
    alt text
    And you can instantly delete the result if you are unsatified the screenshoot using Delete button.

  • Ranger
    Pretty stock Ranger file manager configuration.
    alt text
    You need w3m package to display image preview in terminal, the recommended terminal is URxvt.

  • Startpage
    My own hardcoded startpage using HTML & CSS. Not a programmer, at least it works I'm quite happy 😒
    alt text
    Mystartpage looks like this. Dark variant is also available.

  • Bar
    My collections of Lemonbar script/config. The workspace indicator is generated using xdotool, so it can be work on any WM. Except panel-bspwm, it's specially designed for Bspwm. The workspace indicator is generated using bspc subscribe for efficient loop. The wifi indicator is generated using /sbin/iwgetid, another distro than Debian may have different path of iwgetid.
    alt text
    panel-mini has a bonus ability. It can display album art popup using mpc, ImageMagick, and n30f. Click left to display popup and click right to close popup. I put the popup script in ~/.toys and the background image in ~/.popup folder.

  • ~/.fonts
    Contains Icomoon font, for some of my Polybar config. It's actually packed by NerdyPepper, but I think It would be wise to save a copy here to make it easier for you to recreate my setup. Also contains Siji and Tewi fonts. To use those bitmap fonts, add xset fp+ ~/.fonts/misc & to your startup. And maybe you also need to sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config on Debian to enable the bitmap fonts.

  • Stalonetray
    A configuration file for stalonetray. I usually use it as a companion for Lemonbar. Lemonbar has no dedicated system tray handler. The system tray will be placed on top-left of the desktop and undocked (like on my Bspwm preview above).

  • Weechat
    Minimalist Weechat IRC config with Bufflist, like in my Bspwm & Xfwm screenshoot above. Unfotunately the Weechat version in Debian repo is too low and doesn't support Bufflist (except by using external plugin). My config also contains some useful alias to hide/unhide nicklist and time.

  • Plank
    Minimalist Plank theme looks like in my Rofi preview screenshot above.

  • ~/.utility/gitpush & ~/.utility/gitsetup
    A helper script made by Erik Dubois to push files to GitHub repository.

Tips & Tricks

Some tricks I frequently use for my wallpaper. Ssssshhhhh these are secret πŸ˜‰

  • Linear Vignette
    alt text
    Use your terminal background & foreground colour as background & foreground colour in your GIMP toolbox. Then create new layer using background colour. Add black layer mask, select gradient tool in the toolbox then drag your mouse from top left to bottom right in the image. Reduce the opacity.

    alt text
    Now my conky looks nice in the dark side of wallpaper 😊

  • Radial Vignette
    alt text
    Use your terminal background & foreground colour as background & foreground colour in your GIMP toolbox. Then create new layer using background colour. Add white layer mask, switch background & foreground colour in the toolbox, select the gradient tool but set it as radial gradient (top right dock). Then drag your mouse from center to the outer left or right side of the image and reduce the opacity. You should have a vignette effect now. But let's go more advanced. My panel has purple accent colour, so I create new purple layer to make my wallpaper matches with my panel. I reduce the opacity to 10%.

    alt text
    Now my setup blends well with the wallpaper ☺️

  • Out of Focus
    alt text
    Duplicate your layer then apply gaussian blur effect (Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur) with 50% radius on the top layer. Then add white layer mask. Select gradient tool (use radial gradient like guide above). Switch background & foreground colour in your toolbox then drag your mouse from center to the outer left or right side of the image. You should have an out of focus effect now. But, the image still too bright. So, Let's dim it. add new layer with background colour (the dark one), then reduce the opacity.
    alt text
    This is my old screenshot, so not very accurate. Just for example.

  • Vintage
    alt text
    Simply just increase the brightness and reduce the contrast.

    alt text
    Hmmmm.. Looks nice with pywal apparently 😏

  • Think Out of The Box
    alt text
    I already have a line shaped workspace indicator. So, I only need a static icons for workspace icons.

    alt text
    So, I glued the icons to the wallpaper using GIMP πŸ˜‚
    If it looks stupid but it works, it's not stupid πŸ˜†
