August 2013 Screenshots

[Digit]

ha!  cheesing it!  sneaking in the start of this month's screenshots thread before vasty gets a chance.

double cheesing it, because this scrot isnt actually of vsido (but dont worry, it all looks just the same on my vsido box... er or at least will, once i copy over my latest emacs tweaks).

running xmonad, with digit's tabular boonad config (now with "nice minimal" dropped from the name as i slowly bloat it up and muck it up testing other things), emacs with erc for irc and nicer new pals highlighting (which was such a drastic boon over what it previously looked like, just from the one colour change) and some uzbl-browser instances laying around.  the tabs along the top of that one window, that's xmonad doing that, not uzbl-tabbed, so i can have anything in those tabs.  even vlc, which is sitting looking pretty there.  got one of the uzbl toggled to default css, default according to the web designer.   my default is to have them come up in my gold and brown sorta colour.  easy on my dyslexic eyes.

anyway, you all know the drill, share your scrots!

[VastOne]

^ Very nice Digit!

Same ole for me... I just see no reason to give up on perfection.... 

[jedi]

Isn't tomorrow July 31st?  A little early for August screenies isn't it?   

[VastOne]

^ Not in Digit's world!

He knows I will be gone for 2 days and took over what I could not do!

[PackRat]

Sneak one in early -



haven't changed much lately.

[VastOne]

^ Nice... as always! 

I noticed from this that your were in the IRC... I thought you might venture there.

[Digit]

^ Not in Digit's world!

He knows I will be gone for 2 days and took over what I could not do!

*ahem*  uh, yeah.  that reasons.      i didnt forget there was 31 days, i didnt think i was triple cheesing it... this is all intentional competence.  sure.  i'll agree to that.    [edit](and methinks some peeps are a little farther around the world...  it's not that early here!  [/edit]

lol, oh, hey, just noticed, i didnt have compton on for that scrot did i...   leme just...

now one thing that has been utterly bugging the tits off me, is getting focus-exclude to work in my compton config.  see how the focussed window (bottom right, uzbl, opaque, because has focus, as shown by the orange border), is excluded...  vlc's supposed to be doing that too even though it isnt focussed.

cant seem to get that syntax to effectively hook it up.  i can find the edges of what it thinks is borking up "off syntax", with an error message, but still, when opperating in the confines of not getting errors, i cant get vlc to be excluded from the unfocus transparency.  tried most combinations from xprop and all that g:e: n:w: stuff, which i have no idea what it means (where's the doc???), ... but educated guessing failed... the systematic aproach may be next if no one else knows how.

Code Select Expand

shadow = false;
inactive-opacity = 0.82;
#frame-opacity = 0.7;
fading = false;
shadow-radius = 3;
#opacityy-exclude = "class_g = 'vlc'";
focus-exclude = [ "n:e:*VLC*", "g:e:xteddy" ]that commented out line is from the only mention i could find, and it was for conky, parotted many times across the web.  and the only other instances where focus-exclude comes up in config, it it was an empty list.  []  what i have in my list there, is just whatever last desperate test attempts i left it as.

anyhoo.  thnx.   sry, how rude of me to tangent off into my woes in the middle of the month's screenshot thread.  ^_^

oh, er, notice my emacs looks a little lighter... that's because it is.  it has its own little extra transparency trick in there, for a dash extra alpha, keeps it pimp. 

and finally:
prizes* for anyone who can say the name of the car there, extra prizes* if you didnt look it up.  methinks that's defo my fave of that manufacturer... and that manufacturer could well be my fave manufacturer too.

[edit] nyukyuk, and more prizes* if you know that episode playing in vlc there...[/edit]

*fictional

@DevilOne - one of my favorite pekwm/openbos/fluxbox themes; somewhere on a backup, I have my fvwm version of that theme. Question to pekwm users here - I have been looking, but can not find out if a pekwm theme can be created that does not require pixmaps. Is it doable? I think it is, but I have not delved too deeply into the syntax/options of pekwm themes yet.

back on topic -

[DevilOne]

Sure you can use RGB values, Hex # for colors, even with shadings too. DONT need to use pixmaps. Same as you can in OB/BB/FB- themes
