My AwesomeWM config

This is the reason I'm still not using Wayland. Too good to lose.

Highlights

• Just 4 permanent tags, no transient crap: term, chat, web, mail
• Only 2 active layouts: Tile and Max (default)
• Remembers/loads which tags were visible/active on every individual screen on WM (re)start
• Handmade theme
  • Powerline-style wibar
  • Gruvbox colors, different colors hinting the status of all widgets
  • Custom volume/brightness sliders & media notifications
  • Random wallpapers per screen, from given directory
• Multi-monitor support
  • The X display which has "primary" set shows systray and 2 tags (term & chat) on it
  • Non-primary displays get the web & mail tags (replicated if more screens available)
  • Dynamic re-organisation of tags in case of screen addition/removal (so no clients get lost)
  • If a monitor is widescreen, automatically split into 2 equal "fake" screens (which you can expand/shrink)
• Taglist hints client count by dots, dynamically updated
• Keyboard oriented
  • Can resize, change tag, move, minimize, even suspend any client via shortcuts
    • Special keys for moving clients between visible screens
  • Can toggle special "sticky" mode for client
    • Very useful to keep meetings on the corner & on top
    • Can be even toggled to "shy" mode, which makes it semi-transparent and actively escape from mouse
• Useful widgets on wibar, as needed/supported by environment
  • Rotate screen toggle
  • Touchscreen toggle
  • Caps lock warning widget (only visible while caps lock on)
  • Pressure information widget (Linux PSI)
  • Keyboard layout toggle (disabled, as I'm using a single layout now)
  • Interactive Spotify widget (when app is running)
    • Can also swallow the client

And of course, I have tons of other shortcuts for launching helpful stuff, but that's not config-related.

(*) Looking for a better shortcut / not commonly used

(**) I am doing this with a keyboard knob generally, which is a lot easier

(***) TODO: Needs single shortcut for all situations, auto-detect floating or not
