Powerfull, Perfection, Pretty
The p3 window manager lets you easily customize the behaivior and look of your windows with more customization than other WMs. It's built with C++ and XLib to keep the source code also easy to customize.
To install prebuild binaries of p3wm, use your distro's package manager. Curently p3wm is available on:
- currently none. i will make it availible once i could call it a powerfull and pretty window manager.
(more distributions soon)
If you cannot use a package manager that is supported download the binaries tarball and extract the following 4 files/directories to these locations:
| File in tarball | Location to put it | Permissions |
|---|---|---|
| p3wm.x11 | /usr/bin/p3wm | +x |
| config.conf | /usr/share/p3wm/config.conf | +r |
| keybinds.conf | /usr/share/p3wm/keybinds.conf | +r |
| theme/ | /usr/share/p3wm/theme/ | +r |
Feel like you want to change the behaivor, shortcuts or look? Change the config files in your ~/.p3wm directory, if the file gets corrupted or doesnt exsist it will revert to the defaults stored in the /usr/share/p3wm directory. Explanations for the variables in the config files are available in TODO: CONFIGVARS.md.
