Ming-wm is a keyboard-based, retro-themed window manager for Linux. It is single-threaded, and is neither for Wayland or the X Window System - it writes directly to the framebuffer. Inspirations include i3, Haiku, SerenityOS, and Windows98, and it is a conceptual successor to the previous [mingde](https://github.com/stjet/mingde) and [ming-os](https://github.com/stjet/ming-os).

## Running
|
|
|
|
Create a `password.txt` file in the same directory as `build.rs`, otherwise the default password will be "incorrect mule lightbulb niche".
|
|
|
|
For best performance:
|
|
```
|
|
cargo build --release --all-features
|
|
# Either,
|
|
./target/release/main
|
|
# or
|
|
cargo run --release
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Exclude `--all-features` if the audio player window is not needed. To compile and use the audio player window, ALSA dev packages need to be installed (`alsa-lib-dev` on Alpine, `libasound2-dev` on Debian, `alsa-lib-devl` on Fedora, already included with `alsa-lib` on Arch).

|
|
|
### Running on Mobile Linux
|
|
|
|
Running with an onscreen keyboard. The framebuffer may not be redrawn to the screen without a (real) key press. The volume down button seems to work.
|
|
|
|
`evtest` needs to be installed.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cargo build --release
|
|
./target/release/main touch
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Optionally, in landscape mode (todo: osk may be broken in landscape mode):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cargo build --release
|
|
./target/release/main touch rotate
|
|
```
