treewm is a window manager that tries to implement a new concept. In addition
to the client windows the user can create desktops which can themselves contain
windows and desktops. By arranging the windows in such a tree the user is able
to manage his tasks efficiently treewm is feature-rich, flexible and provides
a powerful concept. However, treewm's look is is rather puristic, and its feel
is not always intuitive, but with a bit of practise it should be very effective
to use.
Short feature list (some of them are quite unique among window managers):
- Allows to create desktops and to arbitrarily move windows between desktops
- Many options (such as sticky, autoresize, always on top, or the focus or
raise policy) can be set for any desktop or window
- Can be fully customized using the configuration file
- Has a very powerful (somewhat vi-like) command mode, and can be controlled
from shell scripts via a FIFO
- Icons can be placed on desktops that can execute arbitrary commands
- Only uses very common libraries, in particular it doesn't require GTK, Qt,
or anything like that
