The way of icon path lookup for `menubar` is enhanced so that it is based on a theme-oriented way as described in the specification: Icon Theme Specification, Ver. 0.12 http://standards.freedesktop.org/icon-theme-spec/icon-theme-spec-latest.html To accomplish this: * Add the two new files `icon_theme.lua` and `index_theme.lua`. The former implements an icon lookup algorithm suggested in the URL above. The latter implements a helper object to parse the cache file `index.theme` of which data is used by the former. * Modify `menu_gen.lua` to use the new algorithm. - The implementation of `lookup_category_icons` is changed accordingly. - The values of the field `all_categories.icon_name` are changed file names to icon names, i.e., file extensions which are used to indicate image file formats are removed. * Add the new file `icon_theme_spec.lua` for a unit test for checking if `icon_theme.lua` together with `index_theme.lua` works as expected. |

About awesome
awesome is a highly configurable, next generation framework window manager for X.
Building and installation
After extracting the dist tarball, run:
make
This will create a build directory, run cmake in it and build awesome.
After building is finished, you can install:
make install # you might need root permissions
Running awesome
You can directly select awesome from your display manager. If not, you can
add the following line to your .xinitrc to start awesome using startx
or to .xsession
to start awesome using your display manager:
exec awesome
In order to connect awesome to a specific display, make sure that
the DISPLAY
environment variable is set correctly, e.g.:
DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec awesome
(This will start awesome on display :1
of the host foo.bar.)
Configuration
The configuration of awesome is done by creating a
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/awesome/rc.lua
file, typically ~/.config/awesome/rc.lua
.
An example configuration named awesomerc.lua.in
is provided in the source.
Troubleshooting
On most systems any message printed by awesome (including warnings and errors)
is written to ~/.xsession-errors
.
If awesome does not start or the configuration file is not producing the desired results the user should examine this file to gain insight into the problem.
