No WM

formerly Unnamed

This Project is a x11 tiling window manager written in Rust and losely based on / inspired by suckless' dwm.

It has 2 stacks like dwm; one master stack on the left side that will always be populated if there is any windows on the screen, and a secondary aux stack to which new windows are automatically added. You can push windows around from the master stack to the aux stack and the other way around with M-m.

You can resize any window by pressing M-mouse-2 and moving the mouse and move them the same way with M-mouse-1. Moving and resizing a window "unstacks" it and it becomes a freely floating window that will stay ontop of the tiled windows. Pressing M-mouse-3 will "re-tile" a floating window.

Both M-S-T and M-S-RET will spawn an instance of xterm, M-q will kill the focused window and M-S-q will kill the window manager.

One big difference from dwm is the way I handle virtual screens, although this is mostly a placeholder mechanic that I will most likely change in the future. Currently I have 3 (or more) virtual screens in a list that can be rotated with M-left and M-right.

No WM also has optional gaps :^)
