It manages windows in tiling and floating +modes. Either mode can be applied dynamically, optimizing the environment for +the application in use and the task performed. +.P +In tiling mode windows are managed in a master and stacking column. The master +column contains the window which currently needs most attention, whereas the +stacking column contains all other windows. In floating mode windows can be +resized and moved freely. Dialog windows are always managed floating, +regardless of the mode selected. +.P +Windows are grouped by tags. Each window can be tagged with one or multiple +tags. Selecting a certain tag for viewing will display all windows with that +tag. +.P +.B dwm +has a small status bar which displays the text read from standard +input, if written. Besides that, it displays all available tags, and the title +of the focused window. It draws a 1-pixel border around windows to +indicate the focus state. Unfocused windows contain a small bar in front of +them displaying their tags and title. +.SH OPTIONS .TP .B \-v -prints version information to stdout, then exits. -.SS Default Key Bindings -.TP 16 -.I Key -.I Action +prints version information to standard output, then exits. +.SH USAGE +.SS Status bar +.TP +Writing to standard input displays the text in the status text area. +.TP +.B Button[1-3] +click onto a tag label focuses the specifc tag. +.TP +.B Button[1,4] +click focuses the previous tag. +.TP +.B Button[2,5] +click focuses the next tag. +.SS Keyboard commands .TP .B Mod1-Return -Zoom +Zoom current .B window to the .B master -track +column. .TP -.B Mod1-k +.B Mod1-h Focus previous -.B window +.B tag. .TP .B Mod1-j Focus next -.B window +.B window. +.TP +.B Mod1-k +Focus previous +.B window. +.TP +.B Mod1-l +Focus next +.B tag. .TP .B Mod1-m Maximize current -.B window +.B window. .TP .B Mod1-[0..n] Focus -.B nth -tag +.B nth tag. .TP .B Mod1-space -(Re-)arrange -.B all -windows tiled +Toggle between +.B tiled +and +.B floating +mode (affects +.BR "all windows" ). +.TP +.B Mod1-Shift-[0..n] +Apply +.B nth tag +to current +.B window. +.TP +.B Mod1-Shift-c +Close focused +.B window. +.TP +.B Mod1-Shift-q +Quit +.B dwm. +.TP +.B Mod1-Shift-Return +Start +.B terminal. +.TP +.B Mod1-Control-[0..n] +Append +.B nth tag +to current +.B window. +.SS Mouse commands +.TP +.B Mod1-Button1 +Move current +.B window +while dragging. +.TP +.B Mod1-Button2 +Zoom current +.B window +to the +.B master +column. +.TP +.B Mod1-Button3 +Resize current +.B window +while dragging. +.SH CUSTOMIZATION +.B dwm +is customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the source +code.
