Mcwm

Jul 20, 2023

Small window manager inspired by CTWM, evilwm, and tinywm

mcwm is a minimalistic floating window manager for the X Window System. It is built directly on top of XCB, the C binding for the X11 protocol. It doesn’t use the Xlib API at all.

All functions are available from the keyboard, but the mouse can be used for moving,resizing and raise/lower.
