gridwm
------
gridwm is an automatic X11 window manager which arranges all windows in a grid.
One goal is not to exceed 3kSLOC.
Requirements
------------
In order to build gridwm you need the Xlib header files.
Installation
------------
Edit config.mk to match your local setup. gridwm is installed into
the /usr/local namespace by default.
Afterwards enter the following command to build and install gridwm (if
necessary as root):
make clean install
Running gridwm
--------------
Add the following line to your .xinitrc to start gridwm using startx:
exec gridwm
In order to connect gridwm to a specific display, make sure that
the DISPLAY environment variable is set correctly, e.g.:
DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec wmii
This will start gridwm on display :1 of the host foo.bar.
Configuration
-------------
The configuration of gridwm is done by customizing the config.h
source file.
