A few words:
This rc.lua is the on that I use for my current desktop configuration. Some options might not work for you (especially if you don't have Vicious installed). Make sure that before you rely on this config in your setup that you first browse through it and make sure that your installed apps match. The syntax is pretty simple, so if my IM app ("Pidgin") doesn't match yours, just change the name in quotes to the executable binary for your IM App. My config assumes that you have moved the default themes into your ~/.config/awesome directory, if you have not done this, then edit accordingly. Realistically, this should be used as more of a guide to doing some simple customizations to your existing configs and not as a "guaranteed to work replacement".
If you have any questions regarding my config or how to modify your own with some added widgets, menus, keybinding defaults, etc then hit me up on my Google+ Profile.

Phew! That's a lot of text. Hopefully this is helpful to you. I'll get to work on re-writing my Awesome How To as soon as I find some time in my schedule. Until then, this should get you started if you're clever :)
Enjoy!
