28## installation
29
30edit `config.mk` to match your local setup (dwm is installed into the
31`/usr/local` namespace by default).
32
33afterwards enter the following command to build and install dwm
34(if necessary as root):
35
36```terminal
37# make clean install
38```
39
40## running dwm
41
42add the following line to your `.xinitrc` to start dwm using startx:
43
44```
45exec dwm
46```
47
48in order to connect dwm to a specific display, make sure that the `DISPLAY`
49environment variable is set correctly, e.g.:
50
51```
52DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec dwm
53```
54
55(this will start dwm on display :1 of the host foo.bar.)
56
57in order to display status info in the bar, you can do something like this
58in your `.xinitrc`:
59
60```
61while xsetroot -name "`date` `uptime | sed 's/.*,//'`"
62do
63    sleep 1
64done &
65exec dwm
66```
67
68## configuration
69
70the configuration of dwm is done by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling
71the source code.
