====== herbstluftwm ====== Herbstluftwm is a manual tiling window manager. Configuration is done with ''herbstclient'' command which are typically executed at satrtaup in the file ''~/.config/herbstluftwm/autostart''. The configuration can get pretty complex. Fortunately there is a default config file at ''/etc/xdg/herbstluftwm/autostart'' which you can copy to your local config directory. There are also additional scripts. In Debian based distros a panel is added at the top. herbstluftwm consists of frames and tags. A tag can be compared with a virtual desktop. A frame holds one window and can be splitted into subframes. The split occurs vertically or horizontally. Split layout can be changed with ''Mod+Space'' The most important default keybindigs are: * Mod-Enter: Open a new xterm * Mod+Number: Switch to tag number * Mod+Tab: Switch to Window within Frame * Mod+.: Cycle through tags * Mod+f: toggle fullscreen **Website**: https://herbstluftwm.org/ ===== RAM Usage ===== On: Artix Linux ^Command ^Version ^[[:glossary#USS|USS]] ^[[:glossary#PSS|PSS]] ^[[:glossary#RSS|RSS]]^ |herbstluftwm |0.9.1 |3232|3939| 6884| ===== Rating ===== * Lightweightness: +++++ * Simpleness: +++ * Easiness: ++ [[:about#rating|About Rating]]
