These long strings are unique and stable.
This allows to write an output configuration suitable for multiple
laptops on multiple workplaces with multiple monitors.
Especially hot-plugging is simplified with this because it simply works
without using tools like wdisplays each time.
sway: Switch back to minimal waybar2026-01-13T10:23:31Zxengineeringme@xengineering.eu2026-01-09T20:12:02Zurn:sha1:be258954cd6182c1d51723a780bf94c2ed57e442
`swaybar` has icon issues on Arch Linux. Furthermore waybar - while more
complicated to configure - has way more features. Complexity can be
avoided by a minimal config.

Too annoying to have the mouse always moving to the center of the
focussed container. This makes a keyboard-focussed workflow less
ergonomic.
sway: Fix modifier + u (URL) command2025-01-05T17:56:59Zxengineeringme@xengineering.eu2025-01-05T17:56:59Zurn:sha1:6c56a6e1aaf85d78810c5f6099f97798721f248asway: Use JetBrainsMonoNerdFont globally2024-03-01T16:17:52Zxengineeringme@xengineering.eu2024-03-01T16:17:52Zurn:sha1:339e4a2ea2430390224d7cec6a1c8f8d3c627eb7sway: Use JetBrainsMonoNerdFont for bar2024-03-01T16:14:01Zxengineeringme@xengineering.eu2024-03-01T16:13:49Zurn:sha1:0f285671e7fa3ca08f1897f5f8b5429a4aca3282
This is used for the foot terminal too.
sway: Use EurKEY layout for Moonlander keyboard2024-01-16T14:23:42Zxengineeringme@xengineering.eu2024-01-16T14:23:42Zurn:sha1:fb8ff69c5d0e463f4586c3a72d84c3057f078895
The Moonlander MKI from ZSA has a default layout close to US keyboards.
To also type German special characters the EurKEY layout is well suited.
Switch to minimal swaybar config2023-03-16T20:23:13Zxengineeringme@xengineering.eu2023-03-16T20:23:13Zurn:sha1:9f46d15398655ad480a4e028cbd6f1723e0a93e0
This is far easier to configure than waybar.
Switch back from dmenu to bemenu as app launcher2023-03-16T17:48:14Zxengineeringme@xengineering.eu2023-03-16T17:48:14Zurn:sha1:c2f1d7c211d2d9aca0f9927fd3f76bab3661b5c1
The reason for dmenu was that it is available in Debian bullseye. But it
works not that good on sway (appearing always on the same screen) and
does not look so pretty by default.
For Debian a separate branch should be created until Debian bookworm
with bemenu is released.
Relocate dotfiles in XDG config home2023-02-06T19:56:54Zxengineeringme@xengineering.eu2023-02-06T19:22:51Zurn:sha1:e0de8cb5de6c6d25b5ef99e6bc7d1029d7150b17
This make ~/.config a simple Git repository instead of the handling with
worktrees and bare repositories which is too complex.
