Installation
============

Using git you can have the full master branch: ::

git clone --recursive https://github.com/copycat-killer/awesome-copycats.git

then, move the contents of `awesome-copycats` to `~/.config/awesome`.

Otherwise, download the latest two masters of ``awesome-copycats`` and ``lain`` (1_ and 2_), extract the first one, extract the second one into the first one, and put the contents of the first one into your Awesome directory.

Usage
=====

Switch a theme this way: ::

cd ~/.config/awesome
cp rc.lua.theme rc.lua

Alternatively, you can use `switch-theme.sh`_, which will also update to the latest commit.

Then customize your ``rc.lua`` and restart Awesome (``Mod4 + ctrl + r``).

Notes
=====

Only compatible with **stable** versions of Lua and Awesome (git/unstable versions are *not* supported).

Complements are provided by lain_: be sure to meet its dependencies_.

Fonts are Terminus_ (Multicolor, Powerarrow Darker) and Tamsyn_ (other ones).

Every theme has a colorscheme_.

Blackburn and Dremora use Icons_: be sure to have bitmaps enabled if running under Debian_ or Ubuntu_.

Feel free to email me if you have any request.
