3 The calm window manager, cwm for short, is my favourite window manager.
4 It's *the* window manager that convinced me that using a floating window
5 manager was actually worth it.
7 My configuration is unusually long.
9 First I have a list of applications for the built-in menu:
11 command emacsclient "emacsclient -c"
12 command firefox firefox
15 command inkscape inkscape
16 command iridium iridium
17 command keepassxc keepassxc
20 command xterm.jp xterm.jp
22 I found these color by random I guess, but they're fine
24 color activeborder "#0abeff"
25 color inactiveborder "#777"
27 set a decently-sized border around every window
31 I don't understand how cwm is meant to be used by deafult since I'm used
32 to window managers with "tags" (or "workspaces"). Fortunately I can
33 enable "sticky" mode on cwm to simulate workspaces
37 I also prefer to "snap" windows close to the edges
41 with cwm I usually use tint2 as bar, either at the top or at the bottom.
42 cwm doesn't account the space for it automatically like other window
43 manager, we have to do that manually
47 I don't want to give focus to some applications via alt-tab
58 autogroup does what it seems: it automatically moves some windows in a
59 specific group (aka workspace.) The group 0 is sticky across all groups
64 autogroup 0 sshmenu,Xmessage
65 autogroup 0 stalonetray
70 autogroup 3 TelegramDesktop
72 Most cwm keybindings use `alt' which conflicts with emacs. So I unbind
73 everything and re-bind most of the keys on the mod4 (super) key
77 bind-key 4-Tab group-last
78 bind-mouse C-3 menu-exec-wm
79 bind-key C4-slash menu-window
81 eat up multimedia keys so they don't get seen by some programs (like
84 bind-key XF86AudioLowerVolume true
85 bind-key XF86AudioRaiseVolume true
89 bind-key XF86AudioPrev "amused prev"
90 bind-key XF86AudioNext "amused next"
91 bind-key XF86AudioPlay "amused toggle"
92 bind-key XF86AudioStop "amused stop"
94 "gamemode" swiches the keyboard from my custom dvp-eu to an us querty
95 and vice-versa, and the mouse buttons too. it's useful when playing
96 some games, hence the name, or when in need to share the keyboard with
99 bind-key 4-F5 "gamemode"
101 I don't have a dedicated key for screenshot on this machine, but
102 Scroll_Lock is not too awkward to press
104 bind-key 4-Scroll_Lock "sshot -c"
105 bind-key 4S-Scroll_Lock "sshot -cs"
107 manage the notifications
109 bind-key 4-space "dunstctl close"
110 bind-key 4S-space "dunstctl history-pop"
111 bind-key 4-n "dunstctl context"

163 I'm using a custom keyboard layout based on the dvorak-programmer.
