It will try to stay as small as possible. It looks a lot like +.I dwm +with gridlayout, bstack, pertag, dwmreturn patches builtin, but without +floating mode(currently). +.P +.SH MODES +It allows the "normal" method of tiling window managers (with the new window as +the master) and with the new window opened at the bottom of the stack (like +.I dwm's +attach_aside). +.P +.B monsterwm +three other modes available: +.I Bottom stack +where the slave clients (the smaller "windows") are tiled beneath the master. +.I Grid mode +where, once there are four or more cliens in a workspace, they are all +equally divided into a grid. +.I Monocle mode +or fullscreen mode, where the clients take up the entire workspace, and additional +clients are hidden behind the current shown window. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.B \-v +prints version information to standard output, then exits. +.SH USAGE +.SS Status bar +monsterwm does not provide a status bar. Consistent with the Unix philosophy, +monsterwm provides information to the status bar or panel of choice via text. +.SS Keyboard commands +All of +.I monsterwm's +commands can be customized by editing +.I config.h +and recompiling. The default key-bindings include: +.TP +.B Mod1\-Shift\-Return +Start +.BR xterm (1). +.TP +.B Mod4\-v +Start +.BR dmenu (1). +.TP +.B Mod1\-b +Toggles the panel on and off. +.TP +.B Mod1\-Shift\-t +Sets tiled layout. +.TP +.B Mod1\-Shift\-m +Sets monocle layout. +.TP +.B Mod1\-Shift\-b +Sets bottom stack layout +.TP +.B Mod1\-Shift\-g +Sets grid layout +.TP +.B Mod1\-j +Focus next window. +.TP +.B Mod1\-k +Focus previous window. +.TP +.B Mod1\-Shift\-j +Move the focussed window down the stack +.TP +.B Mod1\-Shift\-k +Move the focussed window up the stack +.TP +.B Mod1\-l +Increase master area size. +.TP +.B Mod1\-h +Decrease master area size. +.TP +.B Mod1\-Return +Swaps the focused window to/from master area (tiled layouts only). +.TP +.B Mod1\-Shift\-{Left,Right} +Rotate to the next/previous desktop +.TP +.B Mod1\-Shift\-c +Close focused window. +.TP +.B Mod1\-Tab +Toggles to the last selected desktop. +.TP +.B Mod1\-Shift\-q +Quit monsterwm. +.TP +.B F{1..n} +Move to the nth workspace. By default, +.I monsterwm +is configured with four workspaces. +.SH CUSTOMIZATION +.I monsterwm +is customized by copying +.I config.def.h +to +.I config.h +and (re)compiling the source code. +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR dmenu (1) +.SH BUGS +.I monsterwm +is under active development.
