Overview

About dk

A list based tiling window manager in the vein of dwm, bspwm, and xmonad.

Some basics:

  • Heavily scriptable and tinker friendly.
  • Dynamic workspaces, any workspace on any monitor.
  • More dynamic tile layout with multiple stacks and window resizing.
  • Gaps, double borders, additional layouts, padding and more.
  • Better support for mouse and floating windows, resize tiles with mouse.
  • Startup script for configuration and running programs.
  • Status info can be output to a file or piped for use in bars or scripts.
  • No built-in extras (bar, font drawing, or key bindings).
  • Sane support for icccm, ewmh, and motif.
