| paulo@0 | 11 Installation |
| paulo@0 | 12 ------------ |
| paulo@0 | 13 Edit config.mk to match your local setup (dwm is installed into |
| paulo@0 | 14 the /usr/local namespace by default). |
| paulo@0 | 15 |
| paulo@0 | 16 Afterwards enter the following command to build and install dwm (if |
| paulo@0 | 17 necessary as root): |
| paulo@0 | 18 |
| paulo@0 | 19 make clean install |
| paulo@0 | 20 |
| paulo@0 | 21 |
| paulo@0 | 22 Running dwm |

| paulo@0 | 27 |
| paulo@0 | 28 In order to connect dwm to a specific display, make sure that |

| paulo@0 | 30 |
| paulo@0 | 31 DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec dwm |
| paulo@0 | 32 |
| paulo@0 | 33 (This will start dwm on display :1 of the host foo.bar.) |

| paulo@0 | 35 In order to display status info in the bar, you can do something |
| paulo@0 | 36 like this in your .xinitrc: |
| paulo@0 | 37 |
| paulo@0 | 38 while true |
| paulo@0 | 39 do |
| paulo@0 | 40 echo `date` `uptime | sed 's/.*,//'` |
| paulo@0 | 41 sleep 1 |

| paulo@0 | 43 |
| paulo@0 | 44 |
| paulo@0 | 45 Configuration |
