  2. .SH NAME
  3. dwm \- dynamic window manager
  4. .SH SYNOPSIS
  5. .B dwm
  6. .RB [ \-v ]
  7. .SH DESCRIPTION
  8. .B dwm
  9. is a dynamic window manager for X11. It manages windows in tiling and floating
  10. modes. Either mode can be applied dynamically, optimizing the environment for
  11. the application in use and the task performed.
  12. .P
  13. In tiling mode windows are managed in a master and stacking column. The master
  14. column contains the window which currently needs most attention, whereas the
  15. stacking column contains all other windows. In floating mode windows can be
  16. resized and moved freely. Dialog windows are always managed floating,
  17. regardless of the mode selected.
  18. .P
  19. Windows are grouped by tags. Each window can be tagged with one or multiple
  20. tags. Selecting a certain tag for viewing will display all windows with that
  21. tag.
  22. .P
  23. .B dwm
  24. has a small status bar which displays the text read from standard
  25. input, if written. Besides that, it displays all available tags, and the title
  26. of the focused window. It draws a 1-pixel border around windows to
  27. indicate the focus state. Unfocused windows contain a small bar in front of
  28. them displaying their tags and title.
