# modifying blocks
The statusbar is made from text output from commandline programs.
Blocks are added and removed by editing the blocks.h header file.
+# Luke's bulid
+I have dwmblocks read my preexisting scripts [here in my dotfiles repo](https://github.com/LukeSmithxyz/voidrice/tree/master/.local/bin/statusbar).
+So if you want my build out of the box, download those and put them in your `$PATH`.
+I do this to avoid redundancy in LARBS, both i3 and dwm use the same statusbar scripts.
# signalling changes
For example, the audio module has the update signal 10 by default.
Thus, running `pkill -RTMIN+10 dwmblocks` will update it.
