dwm - dynamic window manager

This is my own fork of dwm, an extremely fast, small, and dynamic window manager for X.

Patches

I've applied the following patches:

  • scratchpad : allows you to spawn or restore a floating terminal window
  • stacker : change focus and move windows using Mod+j/k
  • swallow : prevents screen cluttering by hiding terminals from which GUIs are started (and restore terminal when closed)
  • warp : center the mouse to the focused window
  • deck : layout which applies the monocle-layout only to the clients in the stack
  • bottomstack : layout which puts master at the top and the stack at the bottom
  • xresources : load font and colors from ~/.Xresources

Installation

$ make
$ sudo make install

Add the following line to your .xinitrc to start dwm using startx:

# Using an infinite loop to restart dwm when the "quit" keybinding is used
while true
do
    dwm > "$HOME/.dwm.logs" 2>&1
done
