Yeah. Upgrading awesome was a big deal, I would set aside multiple days to do it

@MichaelMrozek Okay, now that's ridiculous (unless you were joking?).

@Tshepang I doubt it. Been there done that. Usually combined with an overhaul of key bindings, vim macros, etc ... but working on one's workspace can be a big deal when you have it all wired up fancy with your own scripts.

No, it really did take me about 8 hours to work out all the things that had changed. I would keep the old version installed in case I needed to restart X
I use wmii now, but it doesn't really matter, they're all kind of the same. The only thing that differentiated them was the status bars, and I just hide them now

@Tshepang What's ridiculous about it?
@MichaelMrozek Is that the whole thing, or did you write other included files?
I don't know how compact lua is compared with scheme, I'd say about the same

@Gilles spending so many hours just to fix an upgrade issue with a window manager

I think that's the whole thing. It includes some stuff, but it was all other awesome modules

My .sawfishrc is >2k lines, but I do comment a lot more than you

My wmii config is like 100 lines
Gilles
Gilles
@MichaelMrozek I have 2999 lines of sawfish code, not counting blank/comment-only lines or modules written by other people

@Gilles damn!

That...makes me sad
My wmii config is actually 240 lines
On the other hand, my dzen bar is powered by 500 lines of Python

@MichaelMrozek For Emacs, it's 14819

That's insane. Mine is 548 lines
And I was thinking about splitting it into multiple files because that seemed long

@MichaelMrozek 548 lines? I have 426 (582 including blank/comment) just for compatibility with various GNU Emacs and Xemacs versions
My `.emacs` is very simple though:
(load "~/lib/emacs/paths.el")
(load "main")

Ok I've been officially out-geeked. My old sawfish configs are ~700 lines, my current awesome config is 408, and my vimrc (not counting ~10k lines of included plugins, sytax files etc) is a measly 292. (which either proves my incompetence or vims clear superiority)

@Caleb Oh, vim, that's just a toy. wc -l ~/.vimrc` → 220

@Caleb I am extremely out-geeked: I don't use either Emacs or Vim, and I use Metacity WM
@Gilles you remind of your Emacs vs. Vim post... a masterpiece; the best I've seen yet
Caleb
Caleb
@Tshepang Metacity? That would explain why you can't fathom the time it takes to configure a real WM. Metacity has what ... three radio options?
