XMonad is beyond hot, I recommend everyone to try it out. What I like best is never having to leave the keyboard to manage windows - talk about efficient window/workspace switching.
- alnayyir 17y agoFrankly, in the kind of environment where xmonad would be most useful (work), I have the least use for it. I simply don't fiddle with/change the windows my FreeBSD box at work. It does one thing: sit there with all the terminal/editor windows open. It doesn't need to anything else. For that matter, I purposely overlap and raise various windows in different ways that would take forever to set up with a floating layer in xmonad because I can't be bothered to learn the wm. I might check out bluetile, that seems more promising. I just don't have the need to move my windows around much. You know what I do need? A chromium package for FreeBSD. There's virtually no other web browser for *BSD/Linux that is tolerable.
