devilwm (fork of evilwm)

First time posting on the forums here.
Wassup, you know what I'm sayin.
I made a fork of evilwm today for all you minimalist wm folks out there: https://github.com/catnipsta/devilwm
Put it on the AUR as well if you wanna check it out: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/devilwm

I named it devilwm because it's pretty much just evilwm + dmenu.
The only changes I made in the fork was adding a launcher feature so that you can start whatever application launcher you want (defaults to dmenu) and I also changed the default close window keybind because I found the previous one to be atrocious.

Let me know what you guys think and if you have any suggestions or criticism, please share.
Again, this is my first time, so I hope I didn't make too many mistakes.
