Similar programatic abilities can be found in the following window managers: - wmii - via the 9fs interface - https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/wmii https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/wmii - ion3 / notion - via lua bindings - http://notion.sourceforge.net/ http://notion.sourceforge.net/ - guile-wm - similar goals as stumpwm, with scheme - https://github.com/mwitmer/guile-wm https://github.com/mwitmer/guile-wm Of all of these notion is the most "out of the box" complete WM, whereas guile-wm is the most immature.

Also xmonad with haskell - http://xmonad.org/ http://xmonad.org/

  Xmonad is a bit historically related to StumpWM, actually; a number of early users had been using StumpWM for the greater programmability over Ratpoison, but weren't all that keen on Common Lisp, so when dons decided to write a WM in Haskell... I was one of them, and even ported over some of the more popular extensions like search engine plugins (which were themselves originally modeled on 'surfraw', a package of shell scripts written mostly by a fellow named Julian Assange; everything is connected).

Oh, I miss ion3 on osx.

Slightly different game, but you can also interact with i3, a very mature WM, using Chicken Scheme: http://wiki.call-cc.org/eggref/4/i3 http://wiki.call-cc.org/eggref/4/i3

If you're on OS X there is always Amethyst [1], previous discussion [2]. I use it everyday. On a tangent: For automation and window management (via Lua), check out the awesome Hammerspoon [3].

  The maintainer of Amethyst is an awesome person too. Amethyst is honestly the single thing that makes OS X tolerable for me. That said, it's nowhere near as good as a real tiling WM. There are still the technical limitations of the OS X system to fight.
