ARWM
AntiRight Window Manager

Introduction 

This is the home of arwm, a minimalistic window manager. arwm is based on evilwm. It was designed to meet personal desktop environment needs. It allows the ACE desktop environment, a part of GUIShell, to be used without redundancies in the window manager. 

 

Changes from evilwm 

 arwm contains the following changes from the evilwm code base:

  • attractive pixmap-themed title bar with close button, resize button, and shade button.
  • improved key and mouse button bindings, enhancing usability on laptops
  • performance improvements, based on gprof execution profiling
  • code restructuring, specifically method extraction and structuring of globals, eliminating the namespace clutter of evilwm
