I now maintain two linux installations, one on my thinkpad and the other on my dell so one use of this repo is to help sync the configs and another reason is to help the general linux TWM audience in case they happen to need my configs.
Note: I switched to awesomewm in April 2022, so I will stop updating my i3wm configs soon. I also plan to document my awesomewm setup soon.

or convert for whatsapp

chlock
or change lockscreen wallpaper
I use betterlockscreen and I like to see random wallpapers on my screen everyday so I have added a cronjob
to change the lockscreen wallpaper everyday at 18:00 IST. This script is a crontab
friendly script to do the same. Works on shells too. Don't forget to change the path to your wallpaper directory.
junkfolds
I usually have to temporarily download some files like media from whatsapp or a pdf from a random site so I had a "tmp" folder in my ~/ but after some time, this directory is filled with several old files and it becomes difficult to recover a recently downloaded file - yes I can sort by time but what if I need a file that I downloaded a week ago, yes š¤¦ I can use fd
with a time filter but what if I don't know that I need the file from "that" particular day, enter junkfolds
. You are supposed to run this file as a cron/anacron job. It creates a folder with the name format DD-MMM
in ~/workspace (modifiable in script) everyday and deletes any older folders with this name format if they are empty (to prevent flooding that folder with such files).
You can now easily retrieve temp files according to the date and manually inspect folder contents to prune them.
