# xmonad-xmobar config


## Synopsis

My personal xmonad and xmobar configuration (Haskell)


## Description

Because I use them together, I keep the configuration for both
xmonad and xmobar in the same `.xmonad` directory. This is a repo
of my work on these files.

The PNG files in `util/resources` are the sources of the XPM
bitmaps in `resources`. You can use these to work on artwork if
you like.


## Getting it

If you want to use this repo as-is, not just for inspiration, it's
intended to be cloned into the customary `.xmonad` dot-directory. A
symlink can then be used to let xmobar find its config file. Do this:

    $ cd
    $ darcs clone http://hub.darcs.net/dino/xmonad-xmobar-conf .xmonad
    $ ln -s .xmonad/xmobarrc .xmobarrc

You will then need to edit the `iconRoot` field in `.xmonad/xmobarrc`
to reflect your home directory.


## Icon artwork and licensing

All of the icon artwork originals (in the `util/resources` directory)
were acquired from [IconArchive](http://www.iconarchive.com)
with the exception of `gnome_cpu_24.png`, which came from
[findicons.com](http://findicons.com/icon/188802/gnome_cpu#). They
were then converted to XPM by me with the GIMP.

The original PNG files are included and the breakdown of licensing
for these files is as follows:

    icon original                    author               license

## Building from source

Around 2017-06-26 I experienced a build failure on Arch Linux with
stale libraries in the default, systemwide ghc. There were linker
errors in the `xmonad.errors` build log. Some searching brought
me to [this page](https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/54561) and it
may be good to keep this around, an "emergency" dynamic binary
compilation command:

      $ cd ~/.xmonad
      $ ghc --make xmonad.hs -i -ilib -dynamic -fforce-recomp -main-is main -v0 -o xmonad-x86_64-linux
