Awesome Powerarrow theme for 3.5

Original Author

https://github.com/romockee/powerarrow

This is my fork of Romockee's Powerarrow theme, implemented for Awesome-WM 3.5 This project is now in a stage where 80% of the widgets work and I am still working on fixing up the libraries.

Notes

You will need this updated library of "blingbling" for some of the Awesome-WM widgets: https://github.com/cedlemo/blingbling

Lua-oocairo: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lua-oocairo/

Vicious: http://awesome.naquadah.org/wiki/Vicious#Getting_Vicious

Add to the top of your runtime configuration file:

  • local cairo = require("lgi").cairo
  • local blingbling = require("blingbling")
  • vicious = require("vicious")

Beware, some of the hotkeys/key-bindings are from my rc.lua, so if something that you are used to pressing doesn't work, check my global keys

What works in my version so far

  • The layout in general (powerline)
  • Clock
  • Wireless icon and data sent/received indicator (improved)
  • Battery
  • Volume (improved)
  • CPU widget
  • MEM widget
  • Mutt Mail widget

(I am using wicd for my network client, if you are not using that, you should edit out the wicd field, otherwise you will get errors)

Some differences: ----------------

  • Took out the binary clock, due to the fact that it takes me way to long to read.
  • Added on a clock widget and icon
  • Added a "netstat" drop down menu using the 'blingbling' library to indicate what processes are currently using the Internet
  • "Sensors.lua" is not in the new Vicious library
  • Volume icon instead of the core temperature.
  • Working wifi-signal strength indicator. The bars now go up or down, depending on your computers wifi signal strength, rather than a static icon that doesn't change (see screenshots for example)
  • Working volume level indicated in the form of a speaker. The icon shows the sound level as a speaker (see screenshots for example).
