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.
