Uhm ... I meant you should pimp out your .Xdefaults/.Xresources.
Might seems trivial, but if you go through a lot of config files or documents with Vim or Emacs (or even Nano, for that matter), having clear syntax highlighting makes for a more pleasing experience.

Hmm .... Feel like we should start a .Xdefaults/ Term-Colors thread, though I foresee only 2 or 3 members contributing on a regular basis :-/

My setup on an old Pentium dual-core.

user posted image

Distro: GRML / Kernel: 2.6.38-6.slh.1-aptosid / WM: ScrotWM / Shell: Zsh
Xdefaults: Custom Web-safe scheme / Font: -Misc-Fixed-Medium-R-Semicondensed-*-12-110-75-75-C-60-ISO10646-1
On Screen: ScrotWM Man Page, MPD+Ncmpcpp, Weechat-curses, Vim with custom theme showing my Zsh config file.

Edit1:
Sorry. Just noticed I got the thumbnail size wrong. Still within the forum rules, I think.

Edit2:
Still waiting for you to post your tiling setup, farkinid-chan!!

it just arises more question than what have been answered laugh.gif
so a few more question if u dont mind

1- i run fc-list in terminal, showing all available font, now how to use it in scrotwm.conf, just copy paste the name? hmm.gif
2- what else need to be customized, i supposed not scrotwm.conf alone?

and mind sharing the scrotwm.conf for this one drool.gif drool.gif

Okay, I need to make one thing clear. ScrotWM is your quintessential BSD project, meaning that everything is easy in terms of syntax (no need programming language), but it's designed so tightly that if you want any added functionality, it becomes way harder than other WMs like Awesome or Xmonad, since you'll need to hack the source code (you need programming know-how for this) . My actual scrotwm.conf appears very simple, but the way it behaves is totally different thanks to the various hacks I've applied (note: hacks and patches are different beasts... hacks are dirty and buggy).

Anyway, I edited out all the hack-related syntax and pasted the base .scrotwm.conf below for you. Colors are the same as in the screenshot, to go with the terminal .Xdefaults (also attached below).

Now, on to your questions;

1.
fc-list will give you the XFT names for all the fonts you have installed on your system. Unless you have the CVS build of ScrotWM (need to sync with CVS, meaning most probably not available via your package manager unless you use ArchLinux's AUR), you'll need to use the font ISO codes for ScrotWM to recognize the fonts (same for Dmenu, which the scrot bar interfaces with).
ISO codes aren't available for all fonts, sadly. Try launching 'xfontsel' (in terminal or via Dmenu) to see what fonts you have available to you.

For example;
For smallest Terminus, size, most people use:
-*-terminus-medium-r-normal-*-12-120-72-72-c-60-iso8859-1

The one I used in that screenshot is Fixed (or Fixed-Sys, as some people call it). It's a bit special in that it most probably wont show in xfontsel or fc-list, but you definitely have it because it's the standard typeface for the X Window System ... meaning; if you have X, you definitely have Fixed-Sys.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed_%28typeface%29


2.
Yeah, there are definitely other things that you'll need to customize. What you see in the screenshot, I have "Most" installed for coloured Man pages, custom MPD and Ncmpcpp configs for the colors and visualizer in the music player (as well as equalization). a custom Vim theme (right side), and a slightly tweaked weechat.conf (IRC client at bottom). All this requires individual tweaking of each app's config/theme file, and so on.

Anyways, here's a basic .scrotwm.conf

Hmm, you have a point there about clear syntax highlighting.

Also, yeah you should start a .Xdefaults/Term-colours thread. It might help.

Just left my Debian Squeeze,installed openSUSE 11.4 KDE x86-64,and upgrade it to openSUSE Tumbleweed,it means I don't have to wait for new release every 9mths,but my system always stay on bleeding edge,since this Tumbleweed edition is rolling update.
Now running on kernel 2.6.39-30 and KDE 4.6.3 Release 6. Enjoying really fast response performance than previous kernel 2.6.37.

Well since the Tumbleweed is on,I just try it,glad those 'stressful' conflict solution choices during upgrade didn't kill me. Not tough,u just gotta be really careful for those solution choices,but what's the point of living without risk?!

Was fed-up with all the AwesomeWM and SubtleWM fanboys saying that ScrotWM was too minimal and they couldn't use multiple colors in the bar, so I hacked up and piped my own (with a bit of help from a friend)

Just a plain default KDE, just change the background and done... for the past versions I am on gnome, recently tried gnome 3 by adding the official repo... too bad it is complicated to use, not up to my expectation.

This is my desktop, nothing much

haha not really know about susers, but it is understandable if we mentioned it in opensuse's international forum.

Now as per your desktop, now I can see kalerful desktop. Much nicer compared to monochrome POS screen used in most supermarket right now muahah thumbup.gif
