Spectrwm (previously known as scrotwm) is a small dynamic tiling window
|
|
|
|
manager for X11. It tries to stay out of the way so that valuable screen
|
|
|
|
real estate can be used for much more important stuff. It has sane
|
|
|
|
defaults and does not require one to learn a language to do any
|
|
|
|
configuration. It was written by hackers for hackers and it strives to be
|
|
|
|
small, compact and fast.

It was largely inspired by xmonad and dwm. Both are fine products but suffer
|
|
|
|
from things like: crazy-unportable-language-syndrome, silly defaults,
|
|
|
|
asymmetrical window layout, "how hard can it be?" and good old NIH.
|
|
|
|
Nevertheless dwm was a phenomenal resource and many good ideas and code was
|
|
|
|
borrowed from it. On the other hand xmonad has great defaults, key bindings
|
|
|
|
and xinerama support but is crippled by not being written in C.
