Things to make bwpsm behave like dwm's master/stack layout

Primary LanguageShell

bspwm-dwm

Things to make bwpsm behave like dwm's master/stack layout. Based heavily on the work of ortango.

Demo

Usage

Copy things into the locations:

  • bspwm -> ~/.config/bspwm
  • sxhkd -> ~/.config/sxhkd
  • bin -> Somewhere on your PATH where you keep scripts e.g. ~/.local/bin if you've added that.

Implementation Status

  • Basic master stack
  • Adjusting split position
  • Promoting window to master
  • Moving focus up/down stack
  • Swapping windows up/down stack with Super + Shift + j/k

Current key combos

Note: these only contain bspwm-specific sxhkd keybindings. I usually run another sxhkd instance for general bindings (e.g. opening programs)
