and save it as ~/.Xresources

Then, produce this script, called 'dkeger'

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
# dkeger -- choose from a bunch of sexy Xresources
feh --montage --thumbnails /home/$USER/.colors/*.png &
echo "Which theme to use?"
dir /home/$USER/.colors
TMPFILE=/tmp/dkeger_store
touch $TMPFILE
XRSREAL=/home/$USER/.Xresources
XRSFAKE=/home/$USER/.Xresources_new
SELECTED=/home/$USER/.colors/$THEME
FULLNAME=("#include <${SELECTED}>")
sed '/include/d' < $XRSREAL > $TMPFILE
mv $TMPFILE $XRSREAL
echo -e ${FULLNAME} >> $XRSREAL
echo "$XRSREAL written..."
xrdb -merge $XRSREAL
echo "$XRSREAL merged..."
echo "You can close this terminal now."
setsid x-terminal-emulator
exit 0

save it, and make it executable.

Finally, get the archive of dkeg's Xresources colors, and copy them to ~/.colors

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/dkeg/colors.git
mv ~/colors/* ~/.colors

*thumbs up*

[dkeg]

wow Jules, great! thank you!

I was kicking some ideas around for such an automated result, starting with my pallater hack for easier c/p output. *thinking* about the cool results of joining pallater and dkeger

[machinebacon]

paletter could get a 'ask for filename' line and maybe even 'create preview in screentest' or so.

[dkeg]

started working on something. Of course my skills are weak, but may be able to get something going. Probably will need some time though. No problem, just take it as side project. Going with the 'or create new?' option for starters and listing wallpaper directory for selection.

@dkeg: weak skills are skills ready to be developed. have fun :)
