Suckless Utilities version 6.3

About

These are my builds of suckless software such as dwm and st. It's simple to compile these things.

  1. Install necessary tools and libraries
Linux/Unix users:
- xorg (including drivers of course)
- base-devel (or build-essential/s)
- libX11(-devel or -dev)
- libXft(-devel or -dev) 
- libXinerama(-devel or -dev) 
- freetype(-devel or -dev) 
- fontconfig(-devel or -dev)
- font-awesome (for slstatus)(must be 6.x)
- terminus-font
- imlibs2(-devel or -dev)
- picom (for transparency)
- feh (optional)

Termux users:
- xorg 
- termux-X11 repo (via main Termux app)
- proot/chroot
- PulseAudio (if you like audio support)
- TigerVNC 
- VNC client
or
- XSDL client
or
- Termux:X11 (both apk and deb)
  1. Clone this repository
  2. Change directory to what suckless software do you want to use
  3. Remove the config.h file, to make sure all patches are applied correctly
  4. Copy make clean install and paste it on your terminal
  5. Insert dwm, slstatus and/or st inside your .xinitrc using your favorite text editor (usually located in /home/<username>/.xinitrc)
  6. Start it and done!

Current bugs

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!
