is a dynamic window manager for X11. It manages windows in tiling and floating
|
|
|
|
|
modes. Either mode can be applied dynamically, depending on the application in

|
use and the task performed.

In tiling mode windows are managed in a master and stacking column. The master
|
|
|
|
|
column contains the window which needs most attention at a time, whereas the
|
|
|
|
|
stacking column contains all other windows in a stack. Dialog windows are
|
|
|
|
|
managed floating, however. In floating mode windows can be resized and moved
|
|
|
|
|
freely.

Windows are grouped by tags. You can view all windows with a specific tag per
|
|
|
|
|
time. However, each window is allowed to contain more than one tag, which
|
|
|
|
|
allows to make windows visible in all views.
