Installed i3 yesterday. I like it sooo much more then dwm.

Debating on whether to use xcompmgr or not. It makes the floating windows look really nice but the tiled ones look kinda bad...

Well mainly because of how tiling works. In dwm it's basically like 3 windows per tag before it starts to get unusable (because the default tiling is one big left, 3 vertical). In i3, you can make it however you want. If I make 2 windows half and half, and I then make a veritcal OR horizonal new window under any window I choose. And under that, I can make any vertical or horizontal window (and so on, but it will be unusable lol). You can also do tabbed windows which is really nice if you don't want to see a window too much but you have to keep it open or something. You can increase the width/height of any window (in dwm you could [by default I think] only increase the width of a window. I'm fairly new to tiling WMs this stuff but I like i3 a whole lot better.

Oh and built in tray support is nice (some people don't need it, but I like it).

clean

dirty..ish

still wmfs, new colors, i actually made those! yay!
[rant]but the bugs in wmfs are killing me, and dwm doesnt have that "on the fly" pertag thingy that wmfs does(or maybe it does, i dont know) and i cant use scrotwm, i love to see my tags...[/rant]

Wow those kds screenshots look sooo nice. Makes me want to install it but I can't work without a tiling wm.

Since uselessgap produces double gaps, I hacked up several patches and now I have even gaps in all layouts.

Wow I never knew you could do that with dwm. Nice!

It's just another layout, and a not-so-useful one

As to your description of i3 v.s. dwm, the difference here is essentially manual v.s. dynamic tiling. Manual tiling provides finer control, while dynamic tiling is more automatic with several predefined layouts that you can switch between. If you want to give dwm another try, look around the dwm patches section at suckless.org for some more layouts, or write your own if you like.

like tag1 can be float, and tag2 can be max....you know. doesnt pertag let you define them in config.h and then they stay that way pertag or am i failing yet again...

Dwm was my first tilling WM (well I tried xmonad for like 2 hours but removed it ). I really liked it (still my 2nd fav wm). I used it for like 2 months. But the thing is, I rather have manual tiling. In dwm I had like 3 windows per workspace (at the max) even on my 1366x768 laptop resolution (I think that's decent for a laptop). I rather have a manual tiling window manager than a dynamic one with lots of patches. But if I ever want dynamic tiling, I'll be sure to use dwm. Thanks though.

Switched from KDE to XFCE temporarily(or maybe not?) here's my somewhat simple and clean setup.

Subtle WM, the only one that fits my brain.

Dirty-ish

Clean

Wish I could find more of a suitable bitmap font for the desktop, the one on the wiki
didn't turn out well for me, can anyone point me to a good bitmap font?

Ya, I sort of am. I have software to do that calculation for me when I get lazy. Thanks for the link.

It's Consolas 9, a MS font unfortunately. Very similar free alternative to it is Bitstream Vera Sans Mono 8.

Arch Linux
