.SH NAME |
|
dwm \- dynamic window manager |
|
.SH SYNOPSIS |
|
.B dwm |
|
.RB [ \-v ] |
|
.SH DESCRIPTION |
|
dwm is a dynamic window manager for X. It manages windows in tiled and |
|
untiled layouts. Either layout can be applied dynamically, optimizing the |
|
environment for the application in use and the task performed. |
|
.P |
|
In tiled layout windows are managed in a master and stacking area. The master |
|
area contains the windows which currently need most attention, whereas the |
|
stacking area contains all other windows. In untiled layout windows can be |
|
resized and moved freely. Dialog windows are always managed untiled, |
|
regardless of the layout applied. |
|
.P |
|
Windows are grouped by tags. Each window can be tagged with one or multiple |
|
tags. Selecting certain tags displays all windows with these tags. |
|
.P |
|
dwm contains a small status bar which displays all available tags, the layout, |
|
the title of the focused window, and the text read from standard input. A |
|
untiled window is indicated with an empty square and a maximized |
|
untiled 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. |
|
.P |
|
dwm draws a small border around windows to indicate the focus state. |

|
.SH CUSTOMIZATION |
|
dwm is customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the source |
|
code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple. |
|
.SH SEE ALSO |
|
.BR dmenu (1) |
|
.SH BUGS |
|
The status bar may display |
|
.BR "EOF" |
|
when dwm has been started by an X session manager like |
|
.BR xdm (1), |
|
because those close standard output before executing dwm. |
|
.P |
|
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. As a workaround |
|
you can use JDK 1.4 (which doesn't contain the XToolkit/XAWT backend) or you |
|
can set the following environment variable (to use the older Motif |
|
backend instead): |
|
.BR AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit .
