# Midgard's dotfiles

Configuration based on elegant pure black.

## Screenshots

These screenshots are slightly out of date, since I change my config without updating these each time.

## Requirements

The Arch Linux package to install is between parentheses.

* i3-gaps ([community/i3-gaps](https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/i3-gaps/))
* Rofi ([community/rofi](https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/rofi/))
* Polybar ([aur/polybar](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/polybar))
* python-notify2 ([aur/python-notify2](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-notify2/<Paste>))
* Mozilla's Fira fonts ([community/otf-fira-mono](https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/otf-fira-mono/) and [community/otf-fira-sans](https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/otf-fira-sans/)). I might change this soon if I play with some patched Fira derivates
* xfce4-terminal ([extra/xfce4-terminal](https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/xfce4-terminal/), but you can choose your own terminal of course if you want)
* NeoVim ([community/neovim](https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/neovim/))
* acpilight ([aur/acpilight](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/acpilight/), an xbacklight replacement that directly uses the kernel's API, works without X)
* unclutter ([community/unclutter](https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/unclutter/), hide the mouse when it hasn't moved for some time)
* driver for your video card that supports GLX

## Installation

You are encouraged to copy stuff you like to your own configuration files. If you want to copy my setup, you can use the script `install.sh` (that script is normally mostly for myself though).

## TODO

* Document more about how to get NeoVim and the plugins up and running.
* Expand and test the install script.
* Add my improved battery monitor script.
