i3wm

i3wm installation and basic configuration.

Install

Open a terminal and run the following command:

chmod 700 install.sh && ./install.sh

Configure

Screen

Use arandr to create screen layouts based on the connected screens with the following names:

• Laptop: ~/.screenlayout/laptop.sh
• Monitor: ~/.screenlayout/monitor.sh

Background

During i3wm startup, the file ~/.background.image is loaded as the background image.

To use your own background image, you can either replace ~/.background.image with your desired image or create a symbolic link pointing to it.

For example:

ln -s bob-sponge.jpg ~/.background.image
