I just completed an install and setup of HLWM version 0.8 on my ArchLabs laptop.

Here’s a screenshot.

The hlwm autostart dotfile is here:

autostart.tar

The infrastructure setup (for all my window managers) is described and documented here: Window Managers: How-to share settings, autostart etc.

Enjoy.

A few things to keep in mind:

  • All of my work comes with absolutely no warranty, expressed or implied. However…
  • It will almost certainly work until it breaks,
    though I must admit it may never work or be useful—and that would be sad.
  • If/when it breaks, you can keep all the pieces.
  • As for what you don’t like, it’s yours to do with as you will.
  • If you find my materials helpful, both you and I will be happy (at least for a while).
  • My advice is worth every penny you paid for it!
