[11:28:23]<ohnobinki>decasm_: for which program?
[11:28:43]<decasm_>ohnobinki: sorry. wmii. and mod-h works, even though mod-l doesn't

[18:27:38]<cls>Hey. If I want to submit a patch for tip should I use the dev mailing list, or what? >.>
[18:40:29]<malikcpp>hello everybody
[18:40:50]<srm>cls: yes for discussion
[18:41:03]<srm>helo malikcpp
[18:43:16]<malikcpp>i'm newby in wmii and i've some questions for customizing my wmii
[18:44:01]<malikcpp>if sby have some time to spend of course =D
[18:44:19]<kfx>step one: install dwm
[18:44:29]<srm> :P
[18:45:20]<malikcpp>well first what is the difference between DWM and WMII ? are they different WM or they run together ?
[18:47:34]<malikcpp>nobody can answer ?
[18:48:08]<srm>malikcpp: make your experiences with wmii and write your patches to the appropriate dev ml
[18:49:01]<malikcpp>thx for tip srm but i've no idea of what is dev ml+ =S
[18:49:55]<srm>http://suckless.org/community
[18:52:07]<malikcpp>thx
[18:55:41]<jt_>dwm is wmii's little brother. wmii uses a filesystem that is accessed by 9P to control everything, and it has configuration files that are written in rc; though you can use just about any language to configure it as long as you can access 9P with the langauge. dwm's configuration is compiled into the binary, and it doesn't use any other files tfor configuration. it can display the root window name, which is set by xsetroot
[18:56:07]<malikcpp>srm: so in what purpose this irc channel is made for
[18:57:12]<srm>malikcpp: idling and direct discussions ;)
[18:59:49]<k23z__>srm: direct ... as in ?
[18:59:51]<k23z__>srm: /msg ?
[19:01:47]<malikcpp>jt_: is it possible to mount wmii's filesystem (i've seen a lot of forums talking about this)
[19:03:33]<jt_>yes
[19:04:05]<jt_>iirc you need 9P support in your kernel
[19:04:22]<k23z__>what exactly does 9P do ?
[19:05:22]<jt_>9p.cat-v.org
[19:05:29]<jt_>read about it there
[19:23:42]<cls>Wouldn't 9fuse work with wmii?
[19:26:38]<jt_>idk
[19:28:10]<cls>Fair enough. I use dwm anyways
