Using scrotwm on OSX

Em Português

A port to OSX was created to make OSX useful for UNIX people. Following are the compilation and installation steps.

Compile scrotwm from the osx directory of the snapshot: 

cd osx
make

To compile scrotwm on OSX 10.5 edit the Makefile and replace: 

libswmhack.so.$(LVERS): swm_hack.so
	$(CC) -shared -fpic -o libswmhack.so.$(LVERS) $(LDADD) swm_hack.so
With: 
libswmhack.so.$(LVERS): swm_hack.so
	$(CC) -shared -bundle -fpic -o libswmhack.so.$(LVERS) $(LDADD) swm_hack.so

Install scrotwm: 

sudo make install

Download dmenu and compile it: 
make
Install dmenu: 
sudo make install
Create a .xinitrc in the home dir of the user and add at least the following line: 
exec scrotwm
Set the X11 preferences of OSX to the following:
[osx1]
[osx2]
[osx3]
[osx4]
[osx5]
This all results in scrotwm bliss!
[scrotwm]

$scrotwm$
