# i3 config file (v4) | |
# | |
# Please see https://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html for a complete reference! | |
# | |
# This config file uses keycodes (bindsym) and was written for the QWERTY | |
# layout. | |
# | |
# To get a config file with the same key positions, but for your current | |
# layout, use the i3-config-wizard | |
# | |
# Font for window titles. Will also be used by the bar unless a different font | |
# is used in the bar {} block below. | |
font 3270 Nerd 12 | |
# This font is widely installed, provides lots of unicode glyphs, right-to-left | |
# text rendering and scalability on retina/hidpi displays (thanks to pango). | |
#font pango:DejaVu Sans Mono 8 | |
# The combination of xss-lock, nm-applet and pactl is a popular choice, so | |
# they are included here as an example. Modify as you see fit. | |
# xss-lock grabs a logind suspend inhibit lock and will use i3lock to lock the | |
# screen before suspend. Use loginctl lock-session to lock your screen. | |
exec --no-startup-id xss-lock --transfer-sleep-lock -- i3lock --nofork | |
# NetworkManager is the most popular way to manage wireless networks on Linux, | |
# and nm-applet is a desktop environment-independent system tray GUI for it. | |
