i3 — improved tiling window manager

Under debian:

When i3 is calling i3-sensible-terminal it is calling

it in turn calls x-terminal-emulator

x-terminal-emulater is calling  gnome-terminal

Three ways to change:

1) Edit:

/usr/bin/i3-sensible-terminal

Put urxvt in front of x-terminal-emulator

Actually make it the first on this line:

for terminal in $TERMINAL urxvt x-terminal-emulator ...

2) Change:

~/i3/config

from:

bindsym $mod+Return exec i3-sensible-terminal

to:

bindsym $mod+Return exec urxvt

This way you will need to restart i3: mod+shit+r

3) Change:

/usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator

to call urxvt

i3-status show no battery

-------------------------

If you don't have a i3status.conf

cp /etc/i3status.conf ~/.i3status.conf

Find your battery, on this laptop it is: 

/sys/class/power_supply/BAT1

The quickest way is to edit .i3status.conf

and add:

path = "/sys/class/power_supply/BAT1/uevent"

to the battery section:

battery 0 {

    format = "%status %percentage %remaining"

    path = "/sys/class/power_supply/BAT1/uevent"

}

You could also change all instances of: battery 0

to: battery 1

order += "battery 1"

battery 1 {

    format = "%status %percentage %remaining"

    path = "/sys/class/power_supply/BAT%d/uevent"

    low_threshold = 10

}

Which would let you use BAT%d

man i3status for more infos

Restart i3 to take effect:

mod+Shift+r
