Hello! Me again! But this with openbox!

People seemed to want it and did actually use it for quite a long time. There’s people on the forum who know a great deal more than me (I’ve done my forum searching 😉)

I’ve done some really simple config’s for openbox and tint2. All I did was add in multimedia key’s and change some keybindings so they make more sense.

**Things Changed from default config’s**

- Super+Q to close windows
- Super+Shift+E for power-menu
- Super+F1 for lock screen
- Super+1(2,3etc;) rather than f1,f2,f3
- Probably some more thing’s I’ve forgotten.

Do we need a telegram group? @Bryanpwo said he’d he make some groups on here. Better that way so everything is on the forum. Some people aren’t too keen on telegram and we can reach more people here. Including people just browsing rather than a dedicated chat.

To clone the git and install, you’d have to have an installed system, right? Or, do you have to clone it in live session and point to a free partition and install it there? Thanks.  
Also, would you consider adding jgmenu, which is a searchable menu?

That’s what I thought, reading your netinstall.yaml. I have [an Openbox install](https://forum.endeavouros.com/t/share-your-desktop/91/4182), but will surely test yours in time. Your Openbox part can be added to the Endeavour OS netinstall.yaml, once you finish making it lovelier. 🙂

Is that menu automatically generated? Or is it static?

you can add that to the tint2 panel, but not on the right click menu probably… archlinux-xdg-menus is also auto generated… Mayby you can add some personal specifik candy’s also ?

You can right click to get the jgmenu. You can also open it anywhere over an open window too under cursor – you have to assign a key set for that.
