»DWM« is a very minimal windowmanager. It has the most essential features I

need, everything else is 'do-it-yourself' or extending it with the many

available »patches«. The vanilla version is less than 2000 SLOC. This makes it

easy to understand and modify it.

I really like my configuration at the moment and want to share my changes. Some

of the features listed below are patches from suckless.org I applied, but there

are also some changes I made.

This configuration is entirely tailored for my preferences of course.

* Titlebar:

* Shows all clients of the selected / active tags.

* Divide application titlebars evenly among available space.

* Colour urgent clients in the taskbar on active tags.

* Left-click focuses clicked client.

* Right-click toggles monocle layout.

* Middle-click kills the clicked client.

* Tagbar:

* Only show active tags.

* Colour inactive tags with urgent clients.

* Layouts:

* Cycle layouts with Modkey + Space (next) and Modkey + Control + Space

(previous).

* Fullscreen layout (hides topbar and removes borders).

* Other:

* Move tiled clients around with the mouse (drag-move), awesomewm-like.

* Add some keybinds for multimedia keyboards (audio play / pause, mute, www,

volume buttons, etc).

* ... and more ;) ...
