+spectrwm
+========
+
+spectrwm is a small dynamic tiling window manager for X11. It tries to
+stay out of the way so that valuable screen real estate can be used for
+much more important stuff. It has sane defaults and does not require one
+to learn a language to do any configuration. It was written by hackers
+for hackers and it strives to be small, compact and fast.
