What is w9wm ?
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
w9wm is a quick & dirty hack based on 9wm, the wonderful "template"
|
|
window manager made by David Hogan.
|
|
|
|
9wm is really nice for all day use (I mean, a large Emacs window
|
|
covering the whole screen and a terminal to use Lynx and browse the
|
|
web ;-)) provided that you do not have a large number of windows on
|
|
your screen. But in some occasions it is not the case (ie. you have
|
|
to telnet to 4-5 remote machines), which is painful with 9wm.
|
|
|
|
This need for virtual screens motivated this about 50 lines hack.
|
|
w9wm brings support for virtual screens (provided you use the second
|
|
button, aka middle button to select one virtual screen) as well as for
|
|
key bindings (to switch from one window to another).
