    dwemo description

    dwemo is a minimal window manager for X focusing on necessity and functionality.

    dwemo is a minimal window manager for X focusing on necessity and functionality. It uses keyboard-control for common tasks and direct launching of common applications.

    Binary size should stay below 30kB.

    The Story of dwemo

    Many people have used minimal window managers. In fact, if you are here,
    I'm guessing you have used a minimal window manager or have at least
    considered the possibility. I personally have used many. My problem with all
    of them is that they lacked the exact functionality I desire, functionality I
    believe necessary to be productive.

    So I examined the chronological highlights of my window manager history:

    · fluxbox
    · openbox
    · ion
    · 9wm
    · ratpoison
    · xmonad

    All of the aforementioned window managers were excellent in their own
    right. However, I wanted something simple, configurable, and powerful
    while maintaining an incredibly small footprint. Thus, the idea behind
    dwemo was born.

    The links above are provided for people to educate themselves and others
    about other minimal window managers, and to provide sources to viable
    alternatives, should dwemo not fit a particular user's needs.

    What's New in This Release:

    · removed least used keybindings and corresponding references
    · removed MWM_HINTS for testing/compatibility purposes
