Wbar for Debian
---------------

An initial Wbar configuration was created so that Wbar will work out-of-the-box
on new installations. You can safely remove the recommended packages, if you
prefer other icons or fonts.

If you upgrade from version 1.3.3 you need to replace every hyphen in the first
paragraph of .wbar with two hyphens.

EXAMPLE
-------

OLD:
c: wbar -bpress -above-desk -vbar -pos right -isize 64 -idist 5 -nanim 4 -falfa 65

NEW:
c: wbar --bpress --above-desk --vbar --pos right --isize 64 --idist 5 --nanim 4 --falfa 65

You must also set the correct path to your background image like

i: /usr/share/pixmaps/wbar/dock.png

The recommended way to configure wbar is to use wbar-config, which is an
easy to use and self-explanatory GUI tool. Wbar-config won't be installed
automatically though to keep your system slim and lightweight by default.

Another option is to use make-conf.sh which is located in /usr/share/wbar and
which can help you with creating an initial configuration. Just copy the output
from /tmp to $HOME.

Finally you can also edit the config files by hand in

    /etc/wbar.d/wbar.cfg

or on a per user basis in

    ~/.wbar

It is also possible to use the auto-completion feature of Bash, if you have
bash-completion installed, to create a startup command of wbar on the
commandline.

All options are described in wbar(1) and wbar-config(1). Furthermore please
take a look at the official README file.

Launch Wbar
===========

Wbar starts automatically on systems which adhere to the XDG specification. If
you remove /etc/xdg/autostart/wbar.desktop, wbar will not start system-wide
anymore. You could also override this behaviour by placing a similar desktop
file in ~/.config/autostart and by changing all undesired settings.

However the preferred way for enabling or disabling autostart files is to use session
managers for desktop environments like Razor-qt or LXDE.

You can also start wbar by simply typing

    wbar

in your favourite terminal application.

If you use window managers like Openbox you can launch wbar automatically
on startup by adding an entry to your autostart file like

    wbar &
