NAME
scrotwm - is a small dynamic tiling window manager for X11.
SYNOPSIS
scrotwm
DESCRIPTION
scrotwm is a minimalistic window manager that tries to stay out of the
way so that valuable screen real estate can be used for much more impor-
tant 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.
