<html><body><h1>Window Managers?</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Why would a web site dedicated to the CLI have a section on Window<br>
|
|
Managers? Well, simple.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Some times, you just have to have X running. Some web sites I have to<br>
|
|
do research at use Flash, or photo editing/managing, or my iPod (none<br>
|
|
of the CLI tools let me manage play lists very easily).</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Plus, I cannot get the same resolution on the console as I can under<br>
|
|
X.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>So, what is a CLI user to do? Why, get a Window Manager (wm) that is<br>
|
|
meant for us!</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The features I look for include small footprint and full keyboard<br>
|
|
integration. The current one I use is wmi-10, but it is no longer<br>
|
|
under active development. The group working on it has moved to on to<br>
|
|
<a href="http://www.wmi.de/wmii">wmii</a>, but I do not like the changes,<br>
|
|
so I am off looking for a new one to use.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>From time to time, I will post how my search is going so you can see<br>
|
|
what is out there.</p></body></html> |
