It maps 1..2 to icons. Replace the icons with q..o
<pkap>
Ah nice, thank you! That is a far better starting point than the example in the manpage :)

pkap: yeah, I've been meaning to update the example config, but haven't gotten around to it...
<pkap>
Thanks again, dnkl! I configred the river tags to my liking and it looks great so far. Yambar is a nice piece of Software.

Ey guys. Just curious. Where are you running river? What is the most stable distro right now?
<pkap>
My guess is that most people are on Archlinux. But you need to compile most stuff by yourself anyway, so probably it doesn't matter too much.
<Guest452>
No package on AUR?
<pkap>
Sure there is an AUR packages
<Guest452>
Too outdated then? Why most stuff has to be compiled?
<pkap>
AUR is compiling yourself
<Guest452>
Oh, got it
<pkap>
Just with some convenience
<Guest452>
Yeah yeah, got it. Thanks ;)
<pkap>
But I would be interested if somebody uses river on debian or Ubuntu.

Btw, how do you handle notifications in river?

Guest452: I use fnott. Others use mako I think
<dagle>
dunst is pretty popular too.

Guest452: If you're just starting with river you can check out the github wiki. Als
<pkap>
I recently started with river as main desktop and the wiki got me running mostly.
<pkap>
And I can recommend the stacktile layout because it has per tag layouts but is still very simple.
<pkap>
(Simple in terms of configuration)

so uhm... somebody tell me: why should i use riverwm?
<leon-p>
Guest65: Do you like tiling? Deterministic, automatic tiling to be precise? Then you should use river. If not, then use something else.

<Nulo>
You can also use it as floating :P
<Nulo>
It seems particularly good at both
<Guest65>
leon-p i use sway so i am used to automatic tiling, are there major differences except for the obvious change of config syntax?
<Nulo>
Guest65, sway is not automatic tiling
<Guest65>
well, with custom scripts
<Nulo>
Fair enough. River (by default, through rivertile) enforces a layout
<Nulo>
For me, as a previous Sway/i3wm user, I don't think much about how to order my windows
<Nulo>
And I have no split hell as I did kind of often in Sway
<Nulo>
If you have free time, try it out. Otherwise.. just stay with Sway :)
<pkap>
Guest65: I used i3 for a year and then switched to a dynamic tiling wm. It is easier IMO. Because the layout is given you don't have to spend time to "create" the layout as a tree.
<leon-p>
also layouts are generated by external programs. So you can write your own layouts very easiely
<pkap>
The main difference is the underlying data structure for the windows. A tree for sway/i3 and a stack for river.

Hey, what do you guys use for night display adjustment. It seems to me their is no clear "successor" to redshift on X.
<pkap>
Ah it's in the wiki
<pkap>
Sorry. Wl-sunset from the wiki. Don't know how I missed that.X)
<bfiedler>
I use gammastep, it's a drop-in replacement for redshift for me

Wlsunset looks like a neat, small program, but gammastep is in the Arch Linux Community Repo. That's a tough decision :D
<bfiedler>
use what arch packages. it's less of a hassle
<pkap>
bfiedler: Yeah that's what I usually to as well :)

leon-p: With Emacs, I only use frames (frames-only-mode)
<talismanick>
Chained keychord sequences would be nice, but I'm happy with bspwm-like keypresses - a window manager's a window manager, not Emacs itself

Yesterday ecocode_ pointed out that key sequences are already possible with custom modes. Sounds like a funny hack :D
<pkap>
This should work with both emacs- and vimlike sequences.
