[9a] | OpenBox: Customization Tools

This is video n.9a in the new series of Arch Linux installations. In this video, I am showing you the tools to customize OpenBox. It's by no means a ricing video. The purpose is to know the tools and let your creativity do the rest. Enjoy it!

Nice live example, thanks! Haven't used t2ec nor psuinfo since I moved to Wayland, but now I'm working on a tint2-like panel for sway. All the t2ec and psuinfo executors are expected to work.

Thanks for the nice video! Using OB for some time already (on Arcolinux), edited my keybindings, menu and Rofi config already but saw the great t2ec tooling for Tint2 in your video. Great!

[@eflinux]

Glad it helped :)

@@eflinux Just like with @Eznix I am surprised you guys only have less than 4K subscribers. Very good in depth content. And with you we get lightning speed also, first videos I sometimes rewind to relisten ;-)

[@eflinux]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@PedroMosqueda]

Pretty cool, customization. Great videos. Thank you. Recently i change my desktop from gnome to openbox for ram reason. I used obkey and obmenugenerator to gain some time in configuration. XDD, and i have all your configurations for i3 in my laptop. Thanks again.

[@eflinux]

No problem! Glad you liked it :)

[@Bgdooness]

Great video as usual, thank you.

[@eflinux]

Thanks again!

[@safalpiya3759]

was waiting for it :D

[@eflinux]

Hope you like it :)

[@JasonColdham]

Are you going to do a series on dwm? I'd like to see how to install dwm, st and other suckless software and how to customize it. Your videos are so good! Only way I learned i3 config was through you :) Keep up the great work.

[@eflinux]

Hi Jason, I will, but I can't say yet when. DWM tutorials require time to make, especially to make them as simple as possible, so I'll work on it, but I'll release them when they'll be mature. Thanks for your patience :)

[@JasonColdham]

@@eflinux That is awesome Sir! Will be looking forward to that in the future :D

[@MiguelRodriguez-ng9wc]

Your channel is awesome ^^

[@mhellden]

openbox has always been my favorite.
Have you published your dotfiles on github ?

[@eflinux]

Not yet. This is something I am planning for 2021.

[@inkrmahsarpong3752]

what monitors do you use?

[@eflinux]

It's a Dell Ultrasharp 24" 1080p screen.

[@Davian_Sovan]

Hi how to transparent window terminal ?

[@eflinux]

You have to have a compositor installed and then activate the function in the terminal.

Arch Linux with open box is like driving a Ferrari only with a chassis and engine. ✌️😅
