2. Clone this repository 
3. Change directory to what suckless software do you want to use
4. Remove the `config.h` file, to make sure all patches are applied correctly
5. Copy `make clean install` and paste it on your terminal
6. Insert dwm, slstatus and/or st inside your `.xinitrc` using your favorite text editor (usually located in `/home/<username>/.xinitrc`)
7. Start it and done! 

## Current bugs
- ~~Taskbar not working properly~~ (fixed in commit [e9015f2](https://github.com/Lucas-mother3/suckless-utils/commit/e9015f2d2a09ef66f1c9e188b277c89d23635195) & [7085f9](https://github.com/Lucas-mother3/suckless-utils/commit/7085f97d80fc203d6f54d0209af07007c0347880)). Thanks, [Speedie](https://speedie.gq)!
- ~~Unhiding a hidden window (using the show/hide function) and if it's the only program running, crashes dwm~~
- ~~Alt-tab crashes dwm altogther (idk man)~~

## Patching even further 

Patching everything is as easy as downloading the diff file, use the `patch` command and apply changes.

But, since this is a heavily patched version of everything, I wouldn't recommend patching even further unless if you know what you're doing.

## How the versioning system works

Suckless Uilities (the whole package and not the individual components) are versioned under the current version of the repo's dwm.
Even if dwm 6.4 releases, if the repo still uses dwm 6.3 for compatibility reasons, the whole package will be still be Suckless Utilities 6.3.

## Licensing
All programs are licensed under the MIT License, which sucks, and worse than GNU GPL, but hey, it's better than proprietary code!
