mcwm (Minimalist X11 floating window manager)
|
|
|
|
mcwm is a minimalist window manager for the X Window System written
|
|
directly on top of the X protocol C-language Binding, XCB. It is a
|
|
traditional floating window manager with no fancy smarts like those in
|
|
modern tiling window managers.
|
|
|
|
In mcwm all functions are available from the keyboard but a pointing
|
|
device can be used for move, resize and raise/lower.
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Small.
|
|
* Fast.
|
|
* No icons. (But it can hide windows completely.)
|
|
* Sloppy focus.
|
|
* Toggling vertical and full screen maximizing.
|
|
* Virtual screens/workspaces.
|
|
* Crash proof window placement.
|
|
* Only users can move and resize windows.
|
|
* Multihead support.
|
|
* Good keyboard control.
|
|
* No garish decorations (only 1 pixel border by default).
|
|
* Written in straight C (C99).
|
|
* Written using only XCB.
|
|
* Few dependencies.

Since most config options are compiled in, rather than read from
|
|
a config file, this build allows a user-supplied config.h. To
|
|
customize the config, use a sequence of commands like:
|
|
|
|
# sh extractconfig.sh
|
|
# vi config.h # or emacs, nano, etc
|
|
# ./mcwm.SlackBuild
|
|
|
|
If there's a config.h in the SlackBuild's directory, it will be
|
|
used instead of the default one.
