which uses slightly different repositories might miss one or two minor
programs).
Here are some of the things LARBS sets up:
- Installs i3-gaps, a tiling window manager, with my fully featured
configuration along with dozens of lightweight and vim-centric terminal
applications that replace the more over-encumbering
programs on most machines.
- Massive documentation making use even for novices seamless. A help document
with all bindings for the window manager accessible with `Super+F1` at all
times, as well as commands such as `getkeys` which print the default bindings
of terminal applications. You can even stream instructional videos on topics
with `Super+Shift+E`.
- Installs [my dotfiles](https://github.com/lukesmithxyz/voidrice) giving as
popularized on [my YouTube channel](https://youtube.com/c/Lukesmithxyz).
- Sets up system requirements such as users, permissions, networking, audio and
an AUR manager.
- All done behind a `dialog` based user interface.
## Changes since first release
- More documentation in the `getkeys` program and `mod+shift-e`.
- Luke's build of st is now the default terminal, instead of urxvt. This
includes:
- Full unicode compatibility
- vim-like bindings
- Scrollback with keys and mouse, clipboard use and other add ons to
the default st build
- Xresources colors, allowing the use of wal/pywal
- i3status is the status bar instead of Polybar, which was bloated and failed
to build on many machines. The new i3status includes the modules below, all
of which are constructed to be as minimal and light on system resources as
possible:
- Weather forecasts using `wttr.in`, with highs, lows and rain chance.
- Current song information from `mpd`
- Unread mail from Luke's `mutt-wizard`
- Possible pacman updates
- Status of torrents in transmission-daemon
- Expected date, time, battery, internet and volume modules
- Switch from mocp to mpd/ncmpcpp for music.
- System is more minimalist/suckless.
- dmenu is used instead of rofi for simplicity's sake.
- Deployment of my new mutt-wizard for secure offline email configuration
instead of config files for the user to manually edit.
- Firefox instead of qutebrowser for default browser (qutebrowser configs
remain for qutebrowser afeccionados)
- A default profile of Firefox including some privacy features, an ad-blocker
and VimVixen, for vim-based keyboard shortcuts.
- Extensive implementation of dmenu, including for mounting/unmounting drives,
display selection, confirmation for shutdown and other crucial commands, link
handling and screen/audio recording.
- Updates to config files can be pulled with git now.
- i3 window resize now intuitive directions
- Removal of a lot of brainlethood in the original design, where I relocated
configs for alleged extensibility's sake. That's all been fixed now.
- Configs for the new versions of qutebrowser, newsboat/newsbeuter, neomutt,
etc.
- Link handling scripts for mutt, newsboat and vim
- vi mode is now default in bash (with retention of emacs-mode ctrl-l)
- Caps lock functions both as a super key and escape key with xcape.
- Use of the much better, newer version of my shortcut-sync.
- And the repository is *significantly* smaller than it was before, meaning a
faster download.
- A million and one other tweaks and bug fixes.
## Customization

`newperms` removes those settings, giving the user the ability to run only

## To-do list
- Provide documentation on how to update dotfiles from remote repository.
- Enable tap to click.
- Keyboard luminosity script.
- Add notification icons?
