i3 my new WM of choice (so far)

I've been a relatively content user of KDE and XFCE for a while. Before that I'd used FVWM and AfterStep pretty extensively in addition to TWM, VUE, and MWM. A few years back (late '07) I had become obsessed with Lua as a programming language when I was trying to do somethings that AWK couldn't handle elegantly and for which other languages (Python, Ruby, Perl, etc) were just too big. Shortly thereafter I came across Awesome, a window manager that's tiny (originally a fork of DWM) and extensible through Lua. I have a friend who's all about his Haskell and is an ardent fan of xmonad. I never understood his zealotry until I'd found Awesome.

Honeymoon is over

Some time later (by mid 2010) I was working mostly from my Macbook Pro with only 4GB of RAM and I'd stopped using Awesome all together. All of my customizations were off in some back up somewhere on one of my file servers and I was focused on being productive with whatever UI constraints came with OS X (mostly).

The 7 year 24 month itch

The efficiency and elegance of a minimalistic tiled interface kept calling to me. I tried various 'tiled window managers' that sit on top of OS X and none of them really clicked for me (no pun intended). Most of them just added bloat to Aqua and didn't really bring to it the simplicity I'd enjoyed with Awesome. For a while (with Snow Leopard), I ran in an X only configuration. I couldn't get all of my Awesome configs to work the way they had been working previously (on FreeBSD) so I abandoned that effort and loaded up KDE. KDE was enough like Aqua that it's differences presented a problem for me. I'd been a long time KDE user, but had most recently used Aqua exclusively and on my Mac(s) in KDE my mind thought of only Aqua key bindings. I spent some time remapping keys and then gave up. Back to Aqua I went.

It's not you it's me

Sick of the poor memory performance I get on my Mac(s) with 8GB of RAM I decided to move most of my daily administration, systems engineering, and web development to another platform. I can do all of those things and more on a FreeBSD box with 4 GB and have no problems whatsoever. It just so happens that I have a 24GB quad core rig laying around begging to be put to use so I decided to use that instead.

With all of those resources I decided to run KDE with every option turned to maximum bloat. The performance was great. Unfortunately, KDE just doesn't seem to be my thing anymore. Just recently I was having a conversation with a former WebKit developer wherein we discussed my affinity for the KDE project. It pained me to realize that KDE and I just want different things.

Hot new thang

One day I'm digging around one of my boxes looking for my old Awesome configs and I decide to checkout DWM because a friend of mine has been tweaking the hell out of it himself for his own use. I came across a post on the Arch Wiki while doing a search for DWM configs and customizations which compared various tiling window managers. Much had changed in the world of tiling WMs since last I'd taken note. It was time to do some exploring. Anything built with Xlib was disqualified which meant DWM (the whole reason I'd come across this wiki page in the first place) was out. Being a big fan of python since 1999 I decided that Qtile must be investigated. First, though, I wanted to see just how extensible this i3 thing was. Obviously if you can't script it you don't have the power of something like Qtile, Ion, Awesome or xmonad. There was already a package for my BSD system so I installed it and off I was to play with a new toy.

Really pretty but a little annoying

I'd be lying if I told you that i3 is just as configurable as any of the other aforementioned window managers. With that said, i3 has a very basic and well thought out design that leverages existing system paradigms and mechanisms (sockets, pipes, etc) to achieve a level of configurability that goes deeper than most text based config systems.

I won't go into all of the details here but suffice it to say that I was very pleased with the system capabilities and immediately set about changing the defaults to suit my needs. By default ALT is used as a META/SUPER key; changed that do the "Windows Key". The docs talk about how they have vi-like key bindings. Unfortunately by default the keys are shifted by one to the right making h:j, j:k, k:l, and so forth. The reason for this was that META+h is used to indicate a horizontal split for a window container. META+v is used for Vertical. I changed it so that the '|' and '-' keys did horizontal and vertical splits respectively which freed up the h key to be used with the rest of the normal vi keys. I wanted an easy to switch between workspaces/tags so I mapped the brackets to switch the views and the braces to move active containers/windows from one view to another. Beyond the key mappings I replaced the status app (i3status) with my own i3status.awk script. I another script called mate.awk to persistently prevent my screensaver from kicking in when I don't want it to but also don't want to fully deactivate it. It's called mate (pronounced mah-teh) because it's similar in function to the program caffeine on OS X.

The full config is available on my fossil server. I tend to avoid using github but enough people expect stuff to be there that I reluctantly push things up from time to time. You may find it there if I get around to it.

In closing

i3 is a much more capable window manager than I'd suspected and suits novices and power users alike. I haven't yet gotten around to checking out Qtile because i3 is pretty nice. Whatever you can't get done with sockets, pipes, and I/O redirection you can achieve by hacking the source which is insanely well documented. My hat is off to the guys of the i3 project.

my monster .shrc lately

It's been while since I posted my monster .shrc file. There were a few bug fixes over time and some improvements that I had to make recently so I thought I'd post the latest version. You can find it on my fossil server at http://fossil.secution.com/u/gcw/dotfiles/dir?ci=tip. Occasionally I remember to push it up to github ( https://github.com/gcw/dotfiles/blob/master/dot_shrc ). The file is now just about 400 ones long.

There are customizations for 3 advanced shells (KSH, ZSH (4.3.9+), MKSH) generics for a standard posix compliant shells (like ash, dash, posh, etc) and even stuff to make BASH more palatable when I'm stuck on a linux box.

I've included it below just for kicks with angry fruit-salad colors so you can get an idea of what's in it. If you actually want to download and make use of it, please do your self a favor and use one of the links above. Copying and pasting from here will most assuredly produce unexpected behavior. Some of the differences from when I posted about it before is that now my_pathadd() can handle paths with spaces in them. This was pretty key to me getting the titanium alias in place. I've compromised on my own box to allow the use of ls, sed, and head.  I am loathe to call external programs from shell scripts as they tend to add process overhead. In this case it's for one section where I need to create an alias that I use for doing mobile development with Appcelerator's Titanium framework. I left it in to illustrate for the masses how I get it done but most people can completely remove that whole subsection beginning with line #232 going through #252. The previous post did have a call to AWK to help resolve the currently employed shell. That has long since been modified to stay 'native'.

The over arching goal here is to give myself a shell that works the way I expect it to no mater the constraints of the environment I'm in. Since I work on many boxes and different operating systems, it's nice to know that I won't need to fiddle with too much just to get my work done. Hopefully others will derive some benefit from it being made public.

The core principles were:

1. Keep it standard -- There are many rings that could have been done in a more elegant way if I'd been willing to compromise and use advanced shell features. This was rejected and everything, to the best of my knowledge, conforms to the 2008 opengroup/POSIX standard. That means it should work on every posix complaint shell out there.
2. Don't needlessly call out to external programs -- There are parts of the code where it would have been easier to get something done by calling grep, sed, etc but I chose to keep it, as much as possible, shell code and not rely on external programs to do what the shell (as defined by the published POSIX specifications) can handle internally. For example in my_pathmatch() (beginning at line #56) I use a case statement instead of calling out to grep or sed.  Again, in my_pathadd() I use eval instead of calling sed or awk to create the string lists needed.
3. Keep it performant -- Despite being 400 lines long it still performs pretty well… ok honestly it does well with zsh, ash, mksh, and just flys with KSH93. Unfortunately bash is dog slow and it's somewhat noticeable on my 5 and 7 year old machines when I do testing with bash. As I regularly avoid bash this isn't an issue for me. If you have enhancements/tweaks please let me know. I'd be happy to incorporate things that fall in line with #1 and #2. 

A few neat tricks:

1. my_pathadd <PATH_VARIABLE_NAME> PATH1 PATH2 PATH3 -- will first check that the supplied paths exist and that they are not already in the path variable named. Once the checks are done named path variable gets the valid paths added. (e.g. my_pathadd PATH ~/.bin ~/.rvm/bin)
2. At line 22 the simple (but possibly confusing) use of eval -- This is used to set a variable named for the PID of the currently running shell. This is used by the script to make sure that it doesn't loop over itself by setting $my_<PID> to the string "processed". You can use it in your scripts to (provided you know how to get at it with eval.  An example is at line #18 where we check to make sure the file hasn't been processed by this shell instance. 
3. my_reload() -- This unsets the $my_<PID> variable and reload the script picking up new settings. 
4. At line 91 the while loop -- The while loop is there because the for loop (commented out at line #92) ends up mangling the contents of the string-list in some shells. The only consistent way to get proper quoting/escaping of the elements of the list (that I could come up with) was to do a while loop calling shift and pulling ${1}. Not really a 'neat trick' just a workaround that seems to work (so far).
