xmonad is a tiling window manager for X. Windows are arranged
|
2007-09-01 18:18:41 -04:00
|
|
|
automatically to tile the screen without gaps or overlap, maximising
|
|
|
|
|
screen use. All features of the window manager are accessible from

|
|
|
the keyboard: a mouse is strictly optional. xmonad is written and
|
2007-09-01 18:18:41 -04:00
|
|
|
extensible in Haskell. Custom layout algorithms, and other extensions,
|
|
|
|
|
may be written by the user in config files. Layouts are applied
|
|
|
|
|
dynamically, and different layouts may be used on each workspace.
|
|
|
|
|
Xinerama is fully supported, allowing windows to be tiled on several

|
|
|
screens.

Important note: if you want to configure xmonad without patching
|
|
|
|
|
the default config file and rebuilding the package, you should also
|
|
|
|
|
install the xmonad-lib package, which makes runtime configuration
|
|
|
|
|
possible.
