ArchConfig

A simple install script that installs basic apps on Arch or Debian systems

Installation

Before executing the script make sure that multilib in included in the /etc/pacman.conf like shown. Otherwise the script will fail.

Enter these into the terminal:

If you just want to copy the config files, there is a --config-only flag that does just that.

./install.sh --config-only

For complete configuration:

git clone https://github.com/enziaki/ArchConfig

cd ArchConfig

chmod +x install.sh

./install.sh

Awesome WM theme and config

If you want to use Awesome as your window manager, remove exec dwm with exec awesome in .xinitrc and remove dwmblocks &. The theme file needs to be copied in /usr/share/awesome/themes/default/ while the config file needs to be copied into ~/.config/awesome/ This will already be done by the script but only the rc.lua part. Themes has various ways of installing it.\ This is not the only way to do this and this is not even the recommended way to do this. This will override your theme.lua that was given by default on the system.

Use this with caution!

DWM

My build of DWM along with Dwmblocks gets cloned by the script and is already present in .xinitrc DWM is the default window manager along with alacritty as the default term

End result

• This is the default rice with DWM and alacritty

• This is the rice if you use Awesome

TODO

[DONE] Change the workflow to DWM instead of Awesome.

[DONE] DWM patching with the patches and window swallowing.

[Moving to Gamescope] Moving to wayland and things that are dependent on Xorg using Xwayland.

[DONE] Using pipewire instead of pulseaudio.

[DONE] Note: There are some packages in the install.sh for Arch Linux that don't return a definite package location for pacman to install. This will result in a Failed script and half copied broken configs. Removing some packages completely resolves this issue. After correction, this section will be moved to TODO
