while on topic of window adjusting shortcuts
I got way too used to Win+arrow keys for moving and resizing windows, inluding in multiple monitor setups. Any Linux WM that replicates these shortcuts?
Using Win+arrow I can minimize, maximize, make window stick to left or right half of screen or any of corners and move between desktops.
- RealStickman_ 6y agoI think gnome has those shortcuts. TWMs let the first window fill the whole screen, with subsequent windows being opened next to that first one. Depending on the TWM there's a specific layout or you have to arrange the windows yourself. (i3 is the latter kind. Allowing for very flexible layouts, but more complicated than TWMs who follow a preset patter) TWMs are not built to minimise windows though. That's why there's also a heavy focus on using multiple workspaces. (i3s tab-mode is also useful where you'll have windows arranged similar to browser tabs)
