one of the good ideas i had at the start of my phd was storing all of my work-related pdfs under a fixed directory and setting a keyboard shortcut to a script with dmenu (later tofi) to search them. this is really convenient, because if you want to look at a document, you just start typing. if you know the name of the paper or book, you can open it within a couple of seconds of thinking about it.

Recently I discovered MPD (Music Player Daemon), a music player based on a server/client architecture.

The design allows it to be used with a variety of different clients, all at the same time. That means you can interface with the server through simple command-line commands (mpc), through a terminal user interface (ncmpcpp), through a graphical user interface (ario), or even a web interface (ympd).

Setting it up isn't too hard, and the example configuration file (usually found at /usr/share/doc/mpd/mpdconf.example) provides lots of information and documentation about the available options. One thing you should keep in mind is that MPD's systemd service will use the config file at /etc/mpd.conf. I don't use the systemd service, so I launch it with the command $ mpd ~/.config/mpd/mpd.conf.

Once you have your server set up, you need to make it scan your music directory. All clients should have this functionality, but the most simple way to do it is with the mpc client, running $ mpc update. You should only need to do this on the first startup of MPD, and whenever you make changes to your music directory. Confirm that your library has been loaded with $ mpc stats.

To integrate MPD into my workflow, I wanted to implement keybinds to control my media. I know it can be integrated into playerctl (with mpDris2), but I would like separate media keybinding for playerctl. With that in mind, I chose to make my MPD keybinding use the super key + the media keys. In order to do that, I made 3 scripts: mpd-playpause, mpd-volume, and mpd-next. I used DWM's config to bind the relevant keys to these scripts.

These scripts (along with explanations and screenshots) can be found at https://github.com/allylikesu/mpd-scripts.

In the future, I want to implement a little dmenu control panel for MPD , so watch out for that!

Gonna do some refactoring today but first I gotta install an even lighter linux on my netbook. It's insane that my RPi4 actually is better than the netbook I spent three times as much on.

Gonna start using the RPi4 instead as my weekday substitute. I gotta reinstall the OS though bc I forgor the password and can't install vscode. While I'm using Arch on the netbook, I'm keeping RaspPi OS on the RPi4 despite not liking debian-likes because they have vscode in the repo and I don't wanna compile the bloated ass IDE on a cheap ARM chip n g l.

I'll go with the Lite version and build dwm+dmenu from git. For Arch on the netbook I'll also go with dwm+dmenu and just grab a few light applications. Might go for libreoffice for simplicity but that depends on if abiword+gnumeric is lighter than using LO. Otherwise I'm gonna grab Seamonkey and Xfe to knock all the basics out (I am a simp for application suites).

i3-wmのターミナル周りをいじった

ターミナルは「Terminator」だったが、Uxrvtに変更。 ついでにzshにして、「Oh-My-ZSH!」でテーマ変更。 補完関係のプラグインをいくつか入れ、「powerlevel10k」でトレインを追加。 アイコンが文字化けしてたので、Meslo Nerd Fontをインストール。 無事アイコンも表示されました。 さらにi3-wm標準のi3statusやdmenuをPolybarやRofiに入れ替え。 かなり見た目が変わっていい気分の正月です。
