Requirements

------------

In order to build fdwm you need the Xlib header files.

Installation

------------

Edit config.mk to match your local setup (fdwm is installed into

the /usr/local namespace by default).

Afterwards enter the following command to build and install fdwm (if

necessary as root):

make clean install

Running fdwm

-----------

Add the following line to your .xinitrc to start fdwm using startx:

exec fdwm

In order to connect fdwm to a specific display, make sure that

the DISPLAY environment variable is set correctly, e.g.:

DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec fdwm

(This will start fdwm on display :1 of the host foo.bar.)

Configuration

-------------

The configuration of fdwm is done by creating a custom config.h

and (re)compiling the source code.
