This is the most recent Fluxbox (Ubuntu packages some ancient version) which has some basic support for tiling windows.

Programs: Firefox, gnome-terminal, gkrellm, moc. Oh, and my custom randomly generated fluxbox color theme!

I don't show it off much, but I really like menumaker, the tool for generating menu files for the *box WMs.

interesting!
can you elaborate on this?

how does it work, how is it automated, when does it tile and when not?

You can find the options in `man fluxbox-keys`, if you have the right version of fluxbox, hopefully, the man pages to go with it.

Here's some of the new commands in my ~/.fluxbox/keys

Code:

Mod4 a :arrangewindows

Mod4 t :ArrangeWindowsStackRight

Mod4 v :ArrangeWindowsVertical

Mod4 h :ArrangeWindowsHorizontal

The way it works is very "stupid", in a good way. When you press the keys, it tiles things. Otherwise, it's just your regular Fluxbox session.

There's some fancy options for each of those commands, but I'm just getting along with using the defaults for the moment, and the keys I'm using aren't even set in stone.

Most of the time I just ArrangeWindowsStackRight with 2-3 windows open and it puts the focused window on the left with the other two split on the right, which is about 80% of my tiling WM usage.

Try it out if you get the chance to. I like it.

thanks, i just did.
i like it too.
the fancy options are that you can add a pattern to each of these commands, so they don't apply to all windows but e.g. only to gimp windows.
drawback: it doesn't UNtile. the original layout is lost when i press the same keycombo again.

(i also have other gripes with fluxbox. manually resizing/tiling windows is a pain, because it doesn't have the "GrowToEdge..." options like openbox has, so there's always a few pixels overlap.
strangely, it's doing the same with the above commands.
and there's a general slight bugginess about it; sometimes commands just don't behave as they should for no apparent reason; this is fluxbox 1.3.7 on archlinux)

after a major wm tour:

back to openbox!

Still with Openbox, but ditching tint2 in favour of lemonbar

icewm is still relevant to this old scooter tramp
