10
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.

25 mand key.
