A few comments:

- What's with the weird inconsistent indentation? It makes your code
  really hard to read;
- You are using system(), which is highly unporspacele and extremely
  fragile;
- There is no author attribution for the code taken from dwm, which is
  required;
- You also failed to include the license header, which is required by
  the MIT license;
- You are using the unporspacele "return 0" when returning from main() --
  use EXIT_SUCCESS instead.

I did not look in detail at the code, there may be less issues.
