Updated: Never — Philip's Blog

I think I had a bit too much Club-Mate to drink yesterday because I didn't sleep very much tonight. As a result of this, I'm feeling very tired today and drinking more Club-Mate to compensate. Getting out of this downwards spiral will be painful.

Today I started playing around with the Awesome window manager Holger introduced me to yesterday.

Since the last Ion incident I have been on the lookout for a new window manager, never quite finding one I liked. So far, Awesome is living up to its name.

I originally built Awesome 2.0 from pkgsrc-wip but after playing around for a bit, I pulled the latest code from git because it has some features I want and because I can think of a number of things I wouldn't mind hacking in at some point.

It was a little annoying that the .awesomerc format changed about 100% between 2.0 and git, but it was well-worth the trouble.

One of the things I want to hack on is a load average widget. I think it's about the only thing I currently miss from Ion.

Now for more Club-Mate and then some munch munch I think.
