2025-05-18 18:07:56 +0200 <OftenFaded> Hi xmodudes! Anyone know if the default help message can be configured at all? The font is much smol for my aged marbles
2025-05-18 18:08:38 +0200 <OftenFaded> It looks like a default xterm window almost, but idr installing xterm explicitly
2025-05-18 18:13:18 +0200 <geekosaur> it's actually xmessage unless you've overridden it
2025-05-18 18:14:05 +0200 <geekosaur> you can set the XMONAD_XMESSAGE environment variable to override it, or use .Xresources to change the default font

2025-05-18 18:44:13 +0200 <OftenFaded> I see, I guess it's being overriden somehow, because adding `export XMONAD_XMESSAGE="xmessage -fn 'Noto Sans:size=14'"` to my zshrc is having no effect
2025-05-18 18:46:03 +0200 <OftenFaded> Wait, would it be problematic if I don't have any .Xresources?

2025-05-18 21:46:48 +0200 <yaslam> That must be what the lookupEnv "XMONAD_XMESSAGE" part is for, I didn't know either lol. I just replaced the entire function but setting a variable is easier
2025-05-18 21:48:28 +0200 <yaslam> In https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad/blob/fa8f34596d9eda581b398b1152d7d45f592ebb2f/src/XMonad/Core.hs#…
2025-05-18 21:49:15 +0200 <geekosaur> unless you use startx or are on a fedora derivative, setting things in your shell dotfiles won't affect X11 startup or xmonad
2025-05-18 21:50:46 +0200 <geekosaur> yoou don't require .Xresources, older X11 programs will use defaults if it doesn't exist. if it does, you can override those programs' behavior; see their manpages

2025-05-18 23:15:40 +0200 <OftenFaded> If I'd like to learn how to set env variables in xmonad, where should I try first? The manual and websearch have no mentions
2025-05-18 23:26:22 +0200 <Leary> OftenFaded: It shouldn't be anything specific to xmonad; it's a matter of setting vars for your /session/ (login shell?) rather than for each terminal (interactive shell?). Typically you would set them in `~/.profile`, but that doesn't work on every system either. If you give up on finding the right way, you can fall back on <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.21.0.0/docs/System-Environment.html#v:setEnv>.
2025-05-18 23:31:54 +0200 <geekosaur> on debian-likes including ubuntu, you drop a file in /etc/X11/Xsession.d (there is no per-user equivalent). See https://github.com/geekosaur/xmonad.hs/blob/hilfy-2023/10profile for an example
2025-05-18 23:32:33 +0200 <geekosaur> and yes, if necessary you can use `setEnv` before calling the `xmonad` function in your `main`
2025-05-18 23:34:25 +0200 <OftenFaded> you need an import for that setEnv line right? I think I broke something trying that...
2025-05-18 23:35:37 +0200 <OftenFaded> Well, I think I broke a few somethings trying to figure it out lol
2025-05-18 23:35:47 +0200 <OftenFaded> I'm just trying to get a help message to spawn at all now
