It tries -to stay out of the way so that valuable screen real estate can be -used for much more important stuff. It has sane defaults and does -not require one to learn a language to do any configuration. It -was written by hackers for hackers and it strives to be small, -compact and fast. - -It was largely inspired by xmonad and dwm. Both are fine products -but suffer from things like: crazy-unportable-language-syndrome, -silly defaults, asymmetrical window layout, "how hard can it be?" -and good old NIH. Nevertheless dwm was a phenomenal resource and -many good ideas and code was borrowed from it. On the other hand -xmonad has great defaults, key bindings and xinerama support but -is crippled by not being written in C. - -Scrotwm is a beautiful pearl! For it too, was created by grinding -irritation. Nothing is a bigger waste of time than moving windows -around until they are the right size-ish or having just about any -relevant key combination being eaten for some task one never needs. -The path of agony is too long to quote and in classical OpenBSD -fashion (put up, or hack up) a brand new window manager was whooped -up to serve no other purpose than to obey its masters. It was -written by Marco Peereboom & Ryan Thomas McBride and it is released -under the ISC license. |
