* Description
|
|
Thanks to @ch11ng and his [[https://github.com/ch11ng/exwm][EXWM]] project we can now use Emacs as our window
|
|
manager, that means that you can spawn a Browser Window, or your music player,
|
|
or anything.
|
|
|
|
* Features:
|
|
- Support for using Emacs as window manager
|
|
|
|
* Install
|
|
To use =exwm= layer, add it to your =~/.spacemacs=.
|
|
|
|
The default layer variables are:
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
|
|
'((exwm :variables exwm-enable-systray nil
|
|
exwm-autostart-xdg-applications nil
|
|
exwm-terminal-command "xterm"
|
|
exwm-locking-command nil
|
|
exwm-hide-tiling-modeline nil
|
|
exwm-workspace-switch-wrap t
|
|
exwm-randr-command nil)))
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
Please refer to [[https://github.com/ch11ng/exwm/wiki][EXWM Wiki]] for setting up display manager.
|
|
|
|
** System Tray Integratios
|
|
To enable system tray integration, set =exwm-enable-systray= to =t=.
|
|
|
|
** XDG Autostart
|
|
If =exwm-autostart-xdg-applications= is non-nil, =.desktop= files in
|
|
=$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/autostart= and =XDG_CONFIG_DIRS= will be used to run applications at
|
|
startup. (See [[https://specifications.freedesktop.org/autostart-spec/autostart-spec-latest.html][Desktop Application Autostart Specification]] for details).
|
|
|
|
For the purpose of controlling whether an entry should be run under Emacs,
|
|
the =OnlyShowIn= and =NotShotIn= keys are checked for the string =EXWM=.
|
|
|
|
This is disabled per default.
|
|
|
|
* Key bindings
|
|
As other window managers the ~s~ or *Super* key (Windows Key) is the one that
|
|
is the prefix to every action. We'll use a lot of ~s~.
|
|
|
|
Some emacs keybindings are disabled in X Window, for example ~C-x~ and ~C-c~ are
|
|
disabled so that they can be used for Cutting and Copying text.
