@cindex stumpwm
You could install StumpWM with a Guix system by adding
@code{stumpwm-checkout} and optionally @code{`(,stumpwm-checkout "lib")}
packages to a system configuration file, e.g. @file{/etc/config.scm}.
An example configuration can look like this:
@lisp
(use-modules (gnu))
(use-package-modules wm)
(operating-system
;; …
(packages (append (list sbcl stumpwm-checkout `(,stumpwm-checkout "lib"))
%base-packages)))
@end lisp
@cindex stumpwm fonts
By default StumpWM uses X11 fonts, which could be small or pixelated on
your system. You could fix this by installing StumpWM contrib Lisp
module @code{sbcl-stumpwm-ttf-fonts}, adding it to Guix system packages:
@lisp
(use-modules (gnu))
(use-package-modules fonts wm)
(operating-system
;; …
(packages (append (list sbcl stumpwm-checkout `(,stumpwm-checkout "lib"))
sbcl-stumpwm-ttf-fonts font-dejavu %base-packages)))
@end lisp
Then you need to add the following code to a StumpWM configuration file
@file{~/.stumpwm.d/init.lisp}:
@lisp
(require :ttf-fonts)
(setf xft:*font-dirs* '("/run/current-system/profile/share/fonts/"))
(setf clx-truetype:+font-cache-filename+ (concat (getenv "HOME") "/.fonts/font-cache.sexp"))
(xft:cache-fonts)
(set-font (make-instance 'xft:font :family "DejaVu Sans Mono" :subfamily "Book" :size 11))
@end lisp
