PWM is a rather lightweight window manager for X11. It has the unique
|
|
feature that multiple client windows can be attached to the same frame.
|
|
This feature helps keeping windows, especially the numerous xterms,
|
|
organized. A look at the screenshots below might clarify the idea.
|
|
|
|
Being a lightweight window manager with emphasis on usability, PWM does
|
|
not have all the features that one might expect from a window manager.
|
|
Those features are simply unnecessary. PWM does not provide pixmapped
|
|
themes or other bloated eye candies but has a clean and simple look
|
|
inspired by BeOS and Motif. There are no icons and frames cannot be
|
|
iconified, only "shaded". Only One True (pointer) focus mode is supported:
|
|
sloppy. PWM does not even have titlebar buttons and may not be the easiest
|
|
window manager to get into, most Good Things are not.
|
|
|
|
PWM does have workspaces, menus and Window Maker dockapp support. It has
|
|
pretty good keyboard support and almost all the functionality is
|
|
configurable.
