Been experimenting to try and find something that's easy on my eyes both at night and in the middle of the day.

bg: from subtlepatterns, tweaked the colours in gimp.

font: roboto mono

dots: on github

In your sxhckrc file, your volume controls are mapped to libby. What's that?

It's just a bash file

It's a little script that controls amixer, you can find it here.

What program did you used to extract the most common colors from your screen? (I guess, that's what's in the lower right of your screen)

I'm afraid it's not that clever; that's a simple bash script to display my colour scheme as defined in my Xresources. I only use 5 colours.

pretty neat! It reminds me of the amiga workbench colorscheme which i really like.

Wasn't it the "Magic Workbench" eight colors colorscheme? (old Amiga user here ;) - I still have my beloved A1200 here. Learnt ViM, ksh, C and network basics with it, browsed the Web, Gopher, newsgroups and chatted on IRC on it for the first time in my life, back when I was 15 years old :') - in 1993). It was pretty readable and usable even on a PAL interlaced screen with some hacks to reduce the flickering, back in the days. Damn, it was a really good machine and a nifty operating system for its time. Quite sad CBM fucked up.

yes you are right. Personally i like the blue color in combination with the shades of gray. I remember the flickerfixers but they were too expensive for me back then, i think the a4000 had one built in later on. The os was great, most of my friend bought one for the games but i was amazed it could do multitasking and had a gui :)

Really good! Simplicity of dwm, but no all raw as it comes by default... Finely tuned!

Tip: You can use these for the layouts[]:

static const Layout layouts[] = {
	/* symbol     arrange function */
	{ "├┤│",      tile },    /* tiling */
	{ "│□│",      NULL },    /* floating */
	{ "│ │",      monocle }, /* fulscreen */
};

But I like showing the keys associated to the layouts as you did as well.

I really like those layout symbols. Thanks for the tip!

Nice job ... and it looks like you added a color. I hear you on finding a good set of colors that will work for both day and night. I think so many of mine are low contrast b/c I work at night.
