Minimalist window manager with only dependence: libXCB

At this point, a mouse with at least 5 buttons is required, the buttons 4 and 5, normally acting as 'back' and 'forward' buttons in browsers. This window manager assigns a different function to the back button: it is used for moving windows. See Usage section for details.

Download using GIT:

git clone https://github.com/alexkh/ywm.git

Build + Install

chmod 700 install mk

cd ywm

./mk

sudo ./install

Usage

Most of the operations are performed using 'back' mouse button, which in xorg is identified by number 8:

'mouse-back-button' + move mouse: to move a window

'mouse-back-button' + 'mouse-right-button': to resize window

'mouse-back-button' + 'mouse-middle-button': full screen on/off

'mouse-back-button' + 'mouse-wheel-down': to close a window

'mouse-back-button' + 'mouse-wheel-up': to kill -9 the program

Three xterm teminals are started automatically, but you can add more by pressing 'Mod-key' + 'Enter'
