NAME

6       xwm - a tiny XCB floating window manager
7

SYNOPSIS

9       xwm [-v]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       xwm  is a tiny floating window manager implemented using the XCB proto‐
13       col. Other than xcb-util-keysyms(1), xwm relies on  third-party  tools,
14       which can be configured or expanded to meet the user's preference.  The
15       default configuration provides support  and  command  aliases  for  the
16       surf(1)  web  browser, st(1) terminal emulator and dmenu(1) application
17       launcher.

OPTIONS

23       xwm may be controlled from an attached client using a  key  combination
24       of  a  prefix key, the 'Super' (Win) key by default, followed by a com‐
25       mand key.
