====================================
 Dakkar's ``fvwm-crystal`` settings
====================================

I use a 3840x2160 desktop (a 4k display), with a `slightly modified
version`_ of the `TopLine` recipe. I also use a 5x5 pages virtual
desktop, and a Dvorak keyboard with volume keys (mapped to the proper
keycodes in X11). My desktop manager is `ROX`.

.. _`slightly modified version`: ../tree/recipes/Dakkar

The recipe
==========

The main differences from the stock `TopLine` are:

- different desktop bindings
- larger thumbnails
- different behaviour of the edges
- the pager (and my "biff" terminal) is raised above all other
  windows if I keep the mouse pointer on it long enough
- no application button panel

The decoration
==============

I have changed the `MicroClear Default` decoration_ to add a mini-icon
as button 3.

.. _decoration: ../tree/decorations/Dakkar/Default

The bindings
============

I redefined most keyboard bindings to my taste, `overriding some of
the default ones`_.

.. _`overriding some of the default ones`: ../tree/components/bindings/

The styles and icons
====================

I added some style declaration and icons for some applications
(e.g. the windows created by ``xine-ui`` and ``xpad`` should be bare,
and I added icons for ``xchat-2`` and ``skype``)

The functions
=============

I tweaked a Perl script I found on the Web to create a menu for my
``screen`` sessions, see the `Screen-Menu`_ configuration file and the
`fvwm-screen.pl`_ script.

.. _`Screen-Menu`: ../tree/components/functions/Screen-Menu
.. _`fvwm-screen.pl`: ../tree/scripts/fvwm-screen.pl

In the `Urgency-Hint`_ file, I redefined the ``UrgencyFunc`` to pop up
a notification via the dbus notification mechanism (using a `simple
Perl script`_ which uses `Net::DBus`_).
