# wbar-config(1)

GUI to customize wbar

## NAME

wbar-config - GUI to customize wbar

## SYNOPSIS

**wbar-config**

## DESCRIPTION

**wbar-config** is a program that creates and configures the settings for [**wbar**(1)](/wbar/1.md). The config file consists of blocks of three lines each of the following format:

i: /path/to/file.png\
 c: command --args\
 t: description for mouseover

That means that there is one line starting with "i: " followed by the path to a png file which is used as the icon; followed by a line starting with "c: " which contains the command and arguments that should be run when the user clicks on this icon; and finally followed by a line starting with "t: " containing the text that shall be shown to the user when the mouse cursor is over the icon.

The first block is different, it describes general settings. Here the "i: " argument is the path to a file which is used as the background image. The "c: " argument defines the default settings for wbar. The "t: " line contains the path to the font that shall be used followed by a slash and the font size.

For example:

i: /usr/share/pixmaps/wbar/osxbarback.png\
 c: wbar --bpress --above-desk --vbar --pos right --isize 32 --idist 5 --nanim 4 --falfa 65\
 t: /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSans/10
