Xfce desktop environment

Copy .config/xfce4/terminal/terminalrc for a color theme in xfce4-terminal.

To use Notion:

xfconf-query -c xfce4-session -p /sessions/Failsafe/Client0_Command -n -a -t string -s notion
xfconf-query -c xfce4-session -p /sessions/Failsafe/Client4_Command -n -a -t string -s true

The commands are based on https://wiki.xfce.org/howto/other_window_manager. The first replaces xfwm4 with notion in the default session, and the second replaces xfdesktop (displays wallpaper) with true (exits immediately).

Panel

The workspace switcher panel plugin doesn't work with Notion. As a workaround, you can use a "generic monitor" with bin/get-workspace at a half-second interval to display the current workspace.

I set up the panel manually like this:

  • Whisker Menu
  • Places (BTW, I created this panel plugin a long time ago when I was learning C. Thank you to the maintainers who have supported it after me, and I'm sorry for the noob code!)
  • Some launchers (terminal, browser, etc)
  • Generic Monitor for bin/get-workspace
  • Window Menu
  • Status Tray
  • Battery Monitor
  • PulseAudio Plugin
  • Clock (I maintained the xfce4-datetime plugin for a while, but the clock seems to have a suitable little calendar now)
