+ <h4>dwm with some patches</h4>
+ <p>
+ I've been using dwm 6.5 for a while now, so I thought it was about
+ time I upgraded to dwm 6.8.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Ideally I'd settle for a horizontal scrolling wm as my Thinkpad screen
+ is small, but after flirting with nwm I'm staying with dwm for now.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ I've added a few patches and shortcuts that make it easy for me to
+ circulate between windows and workspaces. I haven't added the xrdb
+ patch this time, instead I added the colorbar patch which nicely
+ colours the dwmblocks status bar and keeps things simple. Many of the
+ tiling patches I added to 6.5 have been left out as I just don't use
+ them. On a small 1366x768 screen splitting it renders it useless so
+ instead I use the monocle layout by default and switch workspaces with
+ super+right and left, and switch windows with super+up and down.
+ </p>
