dwm - dynamic window manager
|
||||
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
\f[B]dwm\f[R] [\f[B]-v\f[R]]
|
||||
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
dwm is a dynamic window manager for X.
|
||||
It manages windows in tiled, monocle and floating layouts.
|
||||
Either layout can be applied dynamically, optimising the environment for
|
||||
the application in use and the task performed.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
In tiled layouts windows are managed in a master and stacking area.
|
||||
The master area on the left contains one window by default, and the
|
||||
stacking area on the right contains all other windows.
|
||||
The number of master area windows can be adjusted from zero to an
|
||||
arbitrary number.
|
||||
In monocle layout all windows are maximised to the screen size.
|
||||
In floating layout windows can be resized and moved freely.
|
||||
Dialog windows are always managed floating, regardless of the layout
|
||||
applied.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Windows are grouped by tags.
|
||||
Each window can be tagged with one or multiple tags.
|
||||
Selecting certain tags displays all windows with these tags.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Each screen contains a small status bar which displays all available
|
||||
tags, the layout, the title of the focused window, and the text read
|
||||
from the root window name property, if the screen is focused.
|
||||
A floating window is indicated with an empty square and a maximised
|
||||
floating window is indicated with a filled square before the windows
|
||||
title.
|
||||
The selected tags are indicated with a different color.
|
||||
The tags of the focused window are indicated with a filled square in the
|
||||
top left corner.
|
||||
The tags which are applied to one or more windows are indicated with an
|
||||
empty square in the top left corner.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
dwm draws a small border around windows to indicate the focus state.

.SH CUSTOMIZATION
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
dwm is customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the
|
||||
source code.
|
||||
This keeps it fast, secure and simple.

||||

||||
.SH ISSUES
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Java applications which use the XToolkit/XAWT backend may draw grey
|
||||
windows only.
|
||||
The XToolkit/XAWT backend breaks ICCCM-compliance in recent JDK 1.5 and
|
||||
early JDK 1.6 versions, because it assumes a reparenting window manager.
|
||||
Possible workarounds are using JDK 1.4 (which doesn\[aq]t contain the
|
||||
XToolkit/XAWT backend) or setting the environment variable
|
||||
\f[B]AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit\f[R] (to use the older Motif backend instead)
|
||||
or running \f[B]xprop -root -f _NET_WM_NAME 32a -set _NET_WM_NAME
|
||||
LG3D\f[R] or \f[B]wmname LG3D\f[R] (to pretend that a non-reparenting
|
||||
window manager is running that the XToolkit/XAWT backend can recognize)
|
||||
or when using OpenJDK setting the environment variable
|
||||
\f[B]_JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1\f[R].
