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 Cargo for Rust and 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.
