Okay i3wm users, what do you like to use for the bar manager? I'm trying to decide if I just want to customize the default bar or change it to something like lemonbar to patch the powerline look in my terminal. I don't want something that would be too complex to configure but still be powerful to use. (I've had issues with polybar but it may have been a fuckup from the script I tried to run with it.

@starrynights89 Should I read a translated copy or hold out until I know enough Japanese to practice on it?

@AlpineLinnix Never thought of it that way. It WOULD reduce some extra pixels.

@lo3chan You can literally order an english translation from Amazon either on Kindle or hard copy. https://amazon.com/gp/product/...

Programmers always pursue things the hard way first. :P

@AlpineLinnix Ended up going that route. I changed the config file to just bring up the bar dynamically if I press the $mod key.

Text editors are the start of easing you out of the mouse, i3 is where you come home full circle. :)
