Well, simple. + +Some times, you just have to have X running. Some web sites I have to\ +do research at use Flash, or photo editing/managing, or my iPod (none\ +of the CLI tools let me manage play lists very easily). + +Plus, I cannot get the same resolution on the console as I can under\ +X. + +So, what is a CLI user to do? Why, get a Window Manager (wm) that is\ +meant for us! + +The features I look for include small footprint and full keyboard\ +integration. The current one I use is wmi-10, but it is no longer\ +under active development. The group working on it has moved to on to\ +[wmii](http://www.wmi.de/wmii), but I do not like the changes,\ +so I am off looking for a new one to use. + +From time to time, I will post how my search is going so you can see\ +what is out there.
