For some reason, i have two programs that keeps constantly vanishing (terminating/killing) itself after some time It's xidlehook for i3lock and mpris-proxy for bluetooth control. I'm not sure how to track what is happening, but these two things are restarting fine after awesomewm restart

I think these dotfiles should consider possibility of crashing program and should automatically notify you about that, restart or at least log that somewhere.

Interesting observation: sometimes these programs (and only these, as i said it was xidlehook, mpris-proxy) doesn't auto start. I have to restart awesomewm to get them to work
