.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.SS Overview
|
||||
.B dwm
|
||||
is a dynamic window manager for X11.
|
||||
is a dynamic window manager for X11. It consists of a small status bar at the
|
||||
top of the screen and arranges windows in either a tiled or floating mode.
|
||||
.P
|
||||
If
|
||||
.B dwm
|
||||
is in tiled mode, it consists of two columns. The left master column
|
||||
contains only one window per time, the right column contains all other windows
|
||||
in a stack. In tiled mode
|
||||
.B dwm
|
||||
.B don't
|
||||
handles incremental resizals, some terminal programs like
|
||||
.B xterm
|
||||
may not work correctly with this in tiled mode.
|
||||
.P
|
||||
If
|
||||
.B dwm
|
||||
is in floating mode, it arranges all windows with the reqyested geometry and
|
||||
allows the user to move or resize them. Some windows, like
|
||||
dialog windows, are treated floating even if
|
||||
.B dwm
|
||||
is in tiled mode. In floating mode
|
||||
.B dwm
|
||||
handles incremental resizals.
|
||||
.P
|
||||
Windows are grouped by tags. You can view all windows with a specific tag per
|
||||
time. However, each window is allowed to contain more than one tag, which
|
||||
allows to make windows visible in all views.
|
||||
.P
|
||||
.B dwm
|
||||
reads from
|
||||
.I stdin
|
||||
to display status text, if written.
|
||||
.P
|
||||
.B dwm
|
||||
draws 1-pixel borders around windows to indicate the focus state and save as
|
||||
much screen real estate as possible. Unfocused windows contain a small bar
|
||||
in front of the window indicating the tags and the window title.

.SS Customization
|

.B dwm
|
||||
reads from stdin to display status text if provided.
|

is customized through editing its source code. It is assumed that
|
||||
dwm users are high experienced users who know how a window manager works
|
||||
and who are able to patch
|
||||
.B dwm
|
||||
for their needs. This keeps
|
||||
.B dwm
|
||||
fast, secure and simple, because it does not process any input data, except
|
||||
window properties and the status text read from
|
||||
.I stdin .

.SH BUGS
|
||||
Some terminal programs do not behave correctly in tiled mode, because
|
||||
incremental resizals are ignored to use maximum screen real estate. You can
|
||||
patch the code to fix this.
