I used to lurk on unixporn a lot in the old place, but I never thought my setup was worth showing (no rounded corners, cool floating stuff, slick darcula themes). However...I'm supposed to be an active contributor here ๐Ÿ˜…

Everything is centered around EXWM which basically allows you to embed your x windows into an emacs buffer (turning emacs into a window manager).

Always glad to see another EXWM user in the wild! If they ever manage to add gaps like the other window managers, I think it will really take off in popularity.

Hiya! We are definitely a rare breed.

I'd love for it to take off, but idk how many ppl are weird enough to want to live in emacs with all its quirks.

If I could embed x windows in tmux...

Vim + Tmux + x == don't need anything else

For now it's frame buffers in terminal 7 if I want to feel like hacker

I just want to cover my bases and adhere to rule 5 (add a details comment), but I think I included all my details in the post description so ๐Ÿคท.

I mean... most of the eye candy setups are non-functional, so I don't think that your setup is not flashy. In fact, it's quite nice.
