I would love to have a tiling WM for MacOS X, but it seems impossible (unless Apple suddenly makes one themselves =).
- cschep 16y agohttp://irradiatedsoftware.com/sizeup/ http://irradiatedsoftware.com/sizeup/ size up is worth a look, but it's not quite the same if you're used to Xmonad, that's for sure.
- labria 16y agoYes, I tried it, but gave up after a few days: it provides nothing that manual tiling doesn't (I have a background with a spot in the center, helps tiling 4 terminal windows).
- pmiller2 16y agoWhat's truly sad is that with the size of the screens on the newer desktop machines, a tiling WM would have a lot of room (literally) to shine. With OSX's standard window management, I end up having to do a lot of manual fiddling to get my windows to the point where they're simultaneously large enough to be useful, while not so large that they overwhelm my visual field. That little green button in the upper left corner really doesn't do what I'd want it to do on a 27" screen when I'm sitting just a couple feet away from it.
- kpreid 16y agoIf the effect of the little green button is to fill your screen with the window, complain to the application developer. It's supposed to go to a useful size. (Finder and Safari are examples of good implementations, though Safari's is slightly glitchy.)
- blownd 16y agoI'm working on an app to make window management as easy as possible: http://windowflow.com http://windowflow.com It's about to relaunch with a significantly improved UI and more flexible tiling methods, so check back in a week if you don't like what you see now. Any feedback is appreciated.
