* Desktop
2021-11-09 12:32:51 +00:00
Many settings formerly present in this website’
my desktop settings, while some others are not.
# Also, since I switched to StumpWM, many of my keybinds from Emacs need
# to be kept up to date with my StumpWM keybinds, and /vice versa/. This
# document aims to regroup all settings related to the desktop in order
# to have an easier time managing them.

** Common Emacs and StumpWM settings :noexport:
2021-11-09 12:32:51 +00:00
Both Emacs and StumpWM work on the same principle of keychords
powering a function or command. With both of them I have a prefix key,
~SPC~ in the case of Emacs (or ~C-SPC~ when in insert-mode, see the
relevant config) and ~s-SPC~ in the case of StumpWM. That means I can
give them the same keychord following this, for instance ~w/~ to create
a new vertically split frame to the right of the current one.
All the keybinds will be presented in the form of tables, with on the
first column the keychord following the leader key, on the second
column the EmacsLisp function to be called, and on the third the
StumpWM command. If one of the ELisp or StumpWM case’
means there is no equivalence. If it’ ~nil~ , then it means it is a
2023-03-20 16:17:57 +00:00
prefix key. The fourth column is for now reserved for Emacs’
which-key, so I can give it a better name. If its value is ~nil~ , then
it should not show up. Hopefully this can be implemented someday in
StumpWM.

The following allows to have an interactive keymap for resizing the
current frame. In Emacs, it will be translated as a hydra while in
StumpWM it will be an interactive keymap.
#+name : emacs-stumpwm-resize-frame
| Keychord | Emacs | StumpWM | which-key |

| ~s~ | ~shrink-window~ | ~resize-direction up~ | |
| ~r~ | ~enlarge-window-horizontally~ | ~resize-direction right~ | |
This translates into the following hydra in EmacsLisp:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defhydra windows-adjust-size ()
"
^Zoom^ ^Other

[_t_ /_s_ ] shrink/enlarge vertically [_q_ ] quit

"

#+end_src
While the following Lisp code is used with StumpWM.
#+begin_src lisp

This file is tangled at ~$HOME/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkrc~ . This is an
equivalent for the GTK3 configuration file you will see below, and it
shares most of its settings. First, let’

:PROPERTIES:
:HEADER-ARGS: :mkdirp yes :tangle ~/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkfilechooser.ini
:END:
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
[Filechooser Settings]
#+END_SRC
The first option alows me to open the file chooser in the current working
directory:
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
StartupMode=cwd
#+END_SRC
Next, setting the location mode to ~path-bar~ will show the path as buttons that
can be clicked rather than the full path.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
LocationMode=path-bar
#+END_SRC
With this configuration, by default we won’
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
ShowHidden=true
#+END_SRC
And we'll also see the size of the visible files.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
ShowSizeColumn=true
#+END_SRC
Now, let’
where the file picker appears:
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
GeometryX=566
GeometryY=202
#+END_SRC
And these two describe the size of the window:
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
GeometryWidth=800
GeometryHeight=400
#+END_SRC
With these two lines, we set how our files are sorted: by name, and in the
ascending order.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
SortColumn=name
SortOrder=ascending
#+END_SRC
Our default view mode is a list of files:
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
ViewMode=list-view
#+END_SRC
And finally, setting our icon view scale to ~-1~ sets the icon view to the max
size.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
IconViewScale=-1
#+END_SRC

The following file helps me to choose the aspect of various GTK+ 3
software, including their theme and icons. First, let’
header:
2021-11-09 12:32:51 +00:00
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
[Settings]
#+END_SRC
Now, let’
also on some websites that can detect this preference and therefore set their
own theme to dark by themselves.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme = true
#+END_SRC
Next, the icon theme is the Flat Remix Dark icon theme:
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
2023-05-18 20:47:15 +00:00
gtk-icon-theme-name = Nordzy
2021-11-09 12:32:51 +00:00
#+END_SRC
Now, the general theme for GTK3 is Nordic.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
gtk-theme-name = Nordic
#+END_SRC
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
gtk-can-change-accels=1
gtk-menu-bar-popup-delay=0

#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix
gtk-xft-antialias=1
gtk-xft-hinting=1
gtk-xft-hintstyle=hintslight
# gtk-xft-rgba=rgb
#+END_SRC
Since window decorations are handled by my WMs, I will leave this variable
empty.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf-unix

** ~.desktop~ files for custom applications
2021-11-09 12:32:51 +00:00
Some software I use are not packaged (yet) on my system. Therefore, in
order to make them available in ~rofi~ , I need to write a ~.desktop~ file
2023-03-20 16:17:57 +00:00
to launch them.
2021-11-09 12:32:51 +00:00

*** Emacs
2023-03-20 16:17:57 +00:00
Emacs does have a default ~.desktop~ file, but I want to override it to
just “open with Emacs” from other software (such as Nemo) and it will
open with ~emacsclient~ instead of just =emacs= .
2021-11-09 12:32:51 +00:00

I also have ~mu4e.desktop~ which is used to set my default email client.
It relies on ~emacsmail~ defined in [[file:bin.org::#Emacsmail-afffb7cd ][this document ]].

*** FlowScape
2021-11-09 12:32:51 +00:00
[[https://pixelforest.itch.io/flowscape ][FlowScape ]] is a nice 3D compositing software I sometimes use to create
landscapes. I always install it in =~/.local/opt/Flowscape= , so the
~.desktop~ file is relatively straightforward.

*** Minecraft
2021-11-09 12:32:51 +00:00
Yup, I play Minecraft. And yes, it does have a default ~.desktop~ file,
2023-03-20 16:17:57 +00:00
but this one overrides it to launch automatically Minecraft with
[[https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PRIME ][prime-run ]], using my Nvidia GPU instead of my integrated GPU.
