+removeboxes
+===========
+
+Description
+-----------
+This patch removes boxes next to tags with windows in them as well
+as the box indicating whether a tag has a floating window in it.
+
+A vanilla dwm bar looks like this (also showcasing a tag with a floating
+window in it):
+
+
+
+And this is what it looks like after removeboxes is applied:
+
+
+
+The patch is best used when combined with something like [underlinetags](https://dwm.suckless.org/patches/underlinetags/),
+but it does work nicely when used just by itself.
