spectrwm_baraction.sh is the main script that can be set as the value for the bar_action option in spectrwm.conf. You can install it in your PATH and configure it like this (the values are just examples): bar_enabled = 1 bar_font = -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-* bar_action = spectrwm_baraction.sh This script uses the following utilities: o top(1) - installed on Slackware o free(1) - installed on Slackware o setxkbmap(1) - installed on Slackware o skb(1) - optional, can be used for alternative keyboard layout detection o battery_status.sh - optional Needs the power_supply class in the /sys directory. o wifi_link_quality.sh - optional Needs ip(8) from the iproute2 package and iwconfig(8) from the wireless-tools package (both of which is installed on Slackware). spectrwm_screenshot.sh: This makes a screenshot of the whole X11 screen or optionally just a window. It needs the ImageMagick (included in Slackware) or GraphicsMagick (available from the SBo repository) package's `import` utility. You can configure it in your spectrwm.conf like this: program[capture] = spectrwm_screenshot.sh full bind[capture] = MOD+c program[capture_w] = spectrwm_screenshot.sh window bind[capture_w] = MOD+Shift+c Needless to say, that these scripts must be in your PATH in the above cases.
