# Dotfiles
These are the configuration files I currently use for my daily driver setup of i3 etc on Arch linux.
# Multimonitor support
I have implemented a custom couple of scripts to handle screen setup for work, home and just on the laptop. It does not work with docking/undocking yet though
# Desktop
I use a custom configured desktop without a normal DE. I prefer the simplicity and control I can get by choosing my own components

### Looks
#### Themes
Icon Theme: Papirus Dark
GTK Theme: Materia Dark
#### Colorscheme
I aim to use the nice Solarized Dark colorscheme as much as possible because I just find it very pleasing to the eyes.
#### Fonts
I try to use the excellent Source Code Pro for Powerline font everywhere. On Arch we need to install the Powerline fonts from the git repository for it to work properly.
# Stow Commands
I use Gnu Stow to manage my dotfiles. Dotfiles from this repository can be used by issuing:
