You can do this with i3 (or any tiling WM, I believe), since they automatically maximize any window if it's the only one on the workspace. Disable the panel/i3b

You can do this with i3 (or any tiling WM, I believe), since they automatically maximize any window if it's the only one on the workspace. Disable the panel/i3bar, and you would have what you seek. Start it with 'exec i3' in .xinitrc and running 'xinit' on login.
- jgtrosh 8y agoI have a work VM with a stripped out i3 that can't create new terminals other than a startup terminal with tmux (which calls shutdown now on EOF); and it can still do basic interaction with other new windows. This reduces problems with VirtualBox X integration and makes the VM simple and like a terminal with some X capabilities. I3 is really flexible for this kind of use case.
