NOTES

Various notes and tips
======================

- sysmonitor occasionally segfault. It happens when reading /proc/net/dev
  using fscanf. I "fixed" it by isolating that code to standalone app and
  running it throught popen.

- keyboard switching using alt+shift (note that this does not work very well with multiple physical keyboards!)
  
    setxkbmap -option grp:switch,grp:alt_shift_toggle us,sk -variant ,qwerty

- set proper numlock on start:
    
    in console (e.g. /etc/rc.local): setleds +num
    in Xorg (e.g. jwm startcommand): numlockx on     (probably it will not shine but it is turned on)
  
- tango icon theme

    Into ~/.gtkrc-2.0 or ~/.gtkrc-2.0.mine add this:
    
    style "user-font"
    {
    font_name="Sans Serif 12"
    }
    widget_class "*" style "user-font"
    
    gtk-icon-theme-name = "Tango"
    gtk-font-name = "Sans Serif 12"

- cursor theme:

  sudo update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme

- XScreenSaver need some ultra serious hacking of ~/.Xresources to look normal, also
  editing source code to remove that ugly logo. Also start xscreenserver with "-no-splash" switch.

  xscreensaver.splash: false
  !font settings
  xscreensaver.Dialog.headingFont:        -*-*-*-*-*-*-2-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
  xscreensaver.Dialog.bodyFont:           -*-*-*-*-*-*-2-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
  xscreensaver.Dialog.labelFont:          -*-*-*-*-*-*-2-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
  xscreensaver.Dialog.unameFont:          -*-*-*-*-*-*-2-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
  xscreensaver.Dialog.buttonFont:         -*-*-*-*-*-*-2-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
  xscreensaver.Dialog.dateFont:           -*-*-*-*-*-*-2-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
  xscreensaver.passwd.passwdFont:         -*-terminus-*-r-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-1
  !general dialog box (affects main hostname, username, password text)
  xscreensaver.Dialog.foreground:         #000001
  xscreensaver.Dialog.background:         #000000
  xscreensaver.Dialog.topShadowColor:     #000000
  xscreensaver.Dialog.bottomShadowColor:  #000000
  xscreensaver.Dialog.Button.foreground:  #000000
  xscreensaver.Dialog.Button.background:  #000000
  !username/password input box and date text color
  xscreensaver.Dialog.text.foreground:    #000000
  xscreensaver.Dialog.text.background:    #aaaaaa
  xscreensaver.Dialog.internalBorderWidth:24
  xscreensaver.Dialog.borderWidth:        20
  xscreensaver.Dialog.shadowThickness:    2
  !timeout bar (background is actually determined by Dialog.text.background)
  xscreensaver.passwd.thermometer.foreground:  #777777
  xscreensaver.passwd.thermometer.background:  #aaaaaa
  xscreensaver.passwd.thermometer.width:       2
  !datestamp format--see the strftime(3) manual page for details
  xscreensaver.dateFormat:    %I:%M%P %a %b %d, %Y
  
  Perhaps slock would be better choice eventually? Although it does not display anything when typing password :(

JWM modifications
-----------------

- do not show exact pixel position of window when windows is being moved
  
  status.c: find following function and add "return;" to the first line
    
    void DrawMoveResizeWindow(const ClientNode *np, StatusWindowType type) {
     return; // here
     
  Update: in jwm rev 581 there is support to turn this off in jwmrc. Simply change these lines:
  
    <MoveMode>outline</MoveMode>
    <ResizeMode>outline</ResizeMode>

  to this:

    <MoveMode coordinates="off">outline</MoveMode>
    <ResizeMode coordinates="off">outline</ResizeMode>

- do not show border around tray buttons "Applications Places System"

   case BUTTON_TASK:
      /* Flat taskbuttons (only icon) for widths < 48 */
      if(width < 48) {     <--------- change this to 120 (would be better to detect caption but this works, who cares)
         break;
      }
      /* conditional fallthrough is intended */..
