Previously, adding a new atom into the code required: 1. In <icc.h>, add the line `extern Atom my_new_atom;` declaring the new atom. 2. In <icc.c>, add the line `Atom my_new_atom;` defining the new atom. 3. In <icc.c>, add the line `my_new_atom = XInternAtom(dpy, "MY_NEW_ATOM", False);` interning this new atom, and assigning the interned value to the variable. Now, just add a line with the atom's name in the X-MACRO in <icc.h>, and a XInternAtoms(3) and a set of macros will do the rest. All new atoms will be referred to as an entry in the ATOMS[] array. For example: ATOMS[MY_NEW_ATOM] The exception are for those REALLY OLD atoms that have already a dedicated compile-time-known value defined at <X11/Xatom.h>. Those do not need to be interned; and are referred to with a constant beginning with the `XA_` prefix. For example: XA_WM_CLASS

gcc make autoconf xorg xorg-xinit xorg-dev
First, run configuration script:
./configure
After that, you can either edit the Makefile, or leave it as is. After that, compile and install amiwm using
make
sudo make install
Hopefully, your compilation was succesfull - now you should have amiwm installed!
Launching amiwm
To launch amiwm, use
startx amiwm
Or add "amiwm" to your xinitrc file
Configuration
Configuration utility is not yet available; To configure amiwm, you'll need to create and edit .amiwmrc file in your home directory. To do so, read amiwm's manpage.
