PolytreeWM - tiling window manager
==================================
PolytreeWM is an extremely fast, small, and dynamic tiling window manager for X.
Requirements
------------
In order to build PolytreeWM you need the Xlib header files.
Installation
------------
./configure
make clean all
sudo make install
Running
-------
Add the following line to your .xinitrc to start PolytreeWM using startx:
exec polytreewm
In order to connect PolytreeWM to a specific display, make sure that the DISPLAY
environment variable is set correctly, e.g.:
DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec polytreewm
(This will start PolytreeWM on display :1 of the host foo.bar.)
In order to display status info in the bar, you can do something
like this in your .xinitrc:
while xsetroot -name "`date` `uptime | sed 's/.*,//'`"
do
sleep 1
done &
exec polytreewm
