Hipster-ws

A GNOME Shell workspace indicator much like the ones you find in tiling window managers, for the hipster pseudo-NEET who loves retro looks.

(Haskell logo not included)

The workspaces are clickable, and you can hold the button down and swipe it through them. It works along with the "Status title bar" extension as can be seen in the image.

Also, you need to change the workspace names manually either through dconf-editor with the value org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences.workspace-names or a GNOME Shell extension.

Installing

Put the hipsterWorkspaces@shou.gnusokyo folder in ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/ and restart GNOME Shell by typing r in the run prompt (Alt-F2 by default).

Styling

It only has four CSS classes,

• .hipster-ws Normal workspace color.

• .hipster-ws-current Highlight current workspace.

• .hipster-ws-urgent Highlight urgent workspace.

• .hipster-separator For the :: separator.

You can edit the default stylesheet.css file included with the extension in its folder ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/hipsterWorkspaces@shou.gnusokyo.
