[lost zinc]

@cursive eagle you need to add that in your config

[cursive eagle]

ofc but its a patch

[lost zinc]

line 13 https://github.com/killertofus/awesome/blob/dwm-arch/config/dwm/config.h#L13

not a patch

[cursive eagle]

but why I don't have anything on dwm folder

[lost zinc]

@cursive eagle you need to copy the files

[cursive eagle]

or recompile right?

ok i have it

[lost zinc]

where?

also read this https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dwm#Installation

[cursive eagle]

ye I had to compile it

I just skipped that step

but nvm

now what?

I have ur folder and all

[lost zinc]

@cursive eagle photo please

[lost zinc]

you are taking my config?

[cursive eagle]

yes

[lost zinc]

[cursive eagle]

compile is better?

[lost zinc]

no?

[cursive eagle]

then its ok that I took your config?

I don't even know how to get my own dwm folder tbh

[lost zinc]

you make it with mkdir

[cursive eagle]

not the folder

the files

[lost zinc]

@cursive eagle check /usr

[cursive eagle]

which folder there?

[lost zinc]

dwm

[cursive eagle]

theres no folder with the name dwm

I just git cloned it

[lost zinc]

if you are going to take my dwm config, you will need my .xinitrc also

[cursive eagle]
