Components used
-
execline - scripting language used for some scripts in ~/.local/bin
-
alacritty - non-VTE based terminal without much cruft (in my opinion)
-
I was at one point interested in trying
st, but it’s a different garbage fire entirely.
-
-
bspwm - tiling window manager
-
sxhkd - keyboard shortcut daemon
-
polybar - desktop panel (clock, workspace switcher, window titles, system tray, now playing, etc.)
-
I’d like something simpler, but nothing else seems to have as much usability. I also considered lemonbar in the past.
-
xtitle - used as a script module on polybar, prints window titles, printing new titles on focus change; one would think xdotool or something most people already have would do this, but it doesn’t seem so.
-
-
xsecurelock - screen locker with emphasis on high security
-
xss-lock - integrate locker with suspend events
-
-
unclutter-xfixes - hides mouse pointer when typing and after a period of time
-
catgirl - IRC client
-
I use the
catgirlsscript located in~/.local/binto make it integrate well with tmux and my desktop keyboard shortcuts.
-
-
pounce - IRC bouncer; running on a different machine
-
litterbox - IRC logger; running on a different machine
-
mess - system for creating temporary, yet archived working directories (a port of the Ruby script is located in ~/.local/bin)
-
-
mpdscribble - lastfm/listenbrainz scrobbler
-
-
aerc - mail client
-
Buggy, written in Go, and somewhat underdeveloped, but it’s not as irritating to configure as mutt or neomutt.
-
-
mbsync - mailbox synchronizer, synchronizing between remote IMAP folders and local Maildirs.
-
mblaze - maildir tools, only currently used for the new mail count in polybar
-
rwc - "run when changed"
-
newsboat - RSS reader
-
idioms - scripting idioms used throughout ~/.local/bin
-
kakoune - modal text editor that integrates nicely with other Unix tools
-
pp - preprocessor that calls out to shell
-
I’ve considered just switching and learning how to use m4 recently, though. Cuts out a dependency.
-
-
dunst - notification daemon
-
rofi - the best dmenu alternative

Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
