Broken links in README.md #13

Hi,

You are probably aware of this but there are broken links in the README.md I haven't tried every single one of them but, For a guide on how to setup a working desktop environment with marswm as base take a look at [SETUP.md](./SETUP.md). this is broken and does not link to e.g. /docs/installation.md

Regards,

P.S.: I'm still using marswm on NetBSD 👍

Thanks for the hint. I was aware that there are probably still some broken links, although I didn't know all of the exact ones. I tried transitioning to an mdbook/online-first documentation, because I didn't think the way it was until now was very clean. Now this does require mdbook in order to build offline documentation, but I think overall it makes for a more coherent documentation structure. I would be really interested in your opinion on this, as I am not yet fully settled on this solution.

I am happy to here you are still using it. I hope it works well for you. I have now added a quickstart guide in order for folks to get to a running system fast. Although it is strongly opinionated on Linux+systemd I would be grateful for your feedback there as well.

Thanks for all the great feedback ;)

I'm very happy with marswm and have no plans to change again on NetBSD. On my Linux system (Void musl) I'm using leftwm.

As for your quick start guide, I'm sure it will be appreciated by potential new users. But, I know nothing about systemd and I prefer it that way. Also, I don't use pulseaudio on any of my systems.

My NetBSD, where I spend most of my time, is not really standard. Appart from marswm built from git-HEAD, I use elvish as my login shell and alacritty also built from git-HEAD. feh as the wallpaper setter, oh-my-posh as shell prompt, wpa_supplicant for WiFi handling and a few other things settings environment variables at login in a rather non-standard way.

But, I'll keep an eye and let you know if I find more things.

I think this can be closed, as it was addressed in c9c5967c68e5942d4a9e95474fe871311a18be43.
