New builds of dwm, dmenu, and st

2025-05-21

new builds with patches

I've updated my builds of dwm, dmenu, and st, available on my git server

Although I've compiled St I still use Ghostty as it fills all my expectations, for example rendering of box characters or setting minimal contrast.

Wezterm is a close second to Ghostty. St has many patches, but not all of them work together. It's meant to be a bare bones terminal emulator.

The DWM build has the xrdb, rotatestack, adjacenttag, and swallow patches. xrdb because I use Pywal16 and I can have dynamic themes that match the wallpaper.

I don't need too much info in bars, so I don't need patches for them, instead I use slstatus with time and battery indications.

Dmenu has the xresources and center patches.
