Thanks to everyone for help with getting Ratpoison up and running. My
experience as a new user was that Ratpoison is the best window manager for a
power user, but that the initial experience is poor because it takes so long
to configure. So I put together a configuration package available at
http://danielwebb.us/software/ratpoison
and also linked it on the wiki on the scripts page. It includes much of what
I discussed here in the last week:
- named workspaces work, with toggle and with menus (based on rpws but heavily
modified)
- the clipboard utility I wrote is included (based on xcb/xclip)
- a basic keyboard macro utility script based on xbindkeys is included
- an xinitrc is included for a simple example setup and with my real setup
(based on examples on the web and from people on this list)
So I didn't write that much code I just wanted to put together a good complete
configuration example based on the best stuff that's already out there.
The goal is that it all works with a 5 minute install. Please test it
and let me know if it meets my goal or if there are any bugs. Also if there
are any basic features I should add that most users would want in a "basic"
configuration let me know that too. I do want to keep it fairly simple, but I
also want to include features that most people use.
Thanks again for Ratpoison, this is what free software's all about.
