Would anybody care to share screenshots (and configs, if possible)?
I'm willing to try it out, sounds like it could replace openbox for me, but I need some inspiration.
My setup is very minimal, so its quite boring, but here's a screenshot anyway:
You can see most of my config in the screenshot. A lot of it was taken from here.
The key points are the colour scheme and the titlebar settings. The key bindings are only to make goomwwm more colemak friendly and the rulesets are just for fun so I have an example at hand in case I need it. I also use xbindkeys to map keys to start urxvt and uzbl-browser. That's pretty much my setup.

Yes, I did.
I'm a fan of the "show your xxx config" thread, that's why I asked for more.

Mod4-Button3 should allow resizing from anywhere on a window. Goomwwm doesn't do border/corner grabs for window resizing. Some apps do implement it themselves.
I meant that it always resizes by moving the bottom-right corner, where it would be more intuitive to resize by moving the corner closest to the point you first click.
Probably not interested in the grid of tags since, as you noted, that duty can be left to a pager
I didn't mean that I could already do this - it seems to be provided by the WM? I'm using Xfce's panel.

I'll investigate your other ideas. Probably not interested in the grid of tags since, as you noted, that duty can be left to a pager, but Compiz's smart mode sounds interesting.
Wow... Compiz... last time I installed that behemoth was so many years and distros ago :-)
]]>The -swap* defaults seem to be wrong in man page.
An option to display the current window size while resizing (in a box like -flashtitle).
A placement mode like Compiz's 'smart' mode - that is, place windows where they will cover the least area of other windows.
The ability to resize a window from other corners than the bottom-right.
Tags arranged in a grid (like Compiz 'desktop wall'). I'm aware this doesn't quite line up with what tags are (and how they're not quite workspaces). I just think spatially and would like to be able to switch between tags in a spatial manner, which I feel is more intuitive when you have a grid rather than a long row. It would be enough, though, for my panel to display the layout as a grid, along with the next point:
The ability to run actions associated with keybindings in -cli mode. So, something like 'goomwwm -cli -do-close' to close the focused window. (The reason for this is to make it possible to script actions - which would make the above 'desktop wall' possible with a simple shell script, assuming I could find a way to get the current tag. I'm also trying out bspwm, and I really like this about it.)
Something like the arrow keys for positioning, but to move all the way in that direction, to the edge of the screen. Because lazy.
Sorry if some of these are already possible and I just missed them (I only discovered goomwwm yesterday).
Also, not really your fault, but does anyone have any idea why xcompmgr/cairo-compmgr mess things up in pagers (less, man, vim) in transparent urxvt (http://i.imgur.com/xkoA7BV.png)?
]]>I'm using xoat much of the time (for getting stuff done), and goomwwm some of the time. Still accepting bug reports on both.
]]>@dublindan, see new -appkeys functions option in goomwwm-git to swap tag and app key sets.
Awesome! Thanks very much! :-P
]]>Edit: I read the manpage again and numbers are supposed to be the default. I tried specifying in my .goomwwmrc
appkeys numbers
but my apps still launch with a number +1 higher.
Edit2: just looked at your goomwwm.h commit and somehow you put the XK_0 at the end of the line instead of the start--line 456 compared to line 454. Just changed it and rebuilt and all works as before. Must have been a late night.
