Windownaut 1 2 6 – Lightweight Window Manager

lwm was written by Elliott Hughes.Maintenance has been taken over by James Carter. David Hogan, the author of9wm - the window manager that inspired lwm - died in 2003. Amemorial page is maintained by Danny Yee.

Elliott's original acknowledgements are included here:

This program's philosophy is based on no particular windowmanager, but inspiration has come from numerous sources.The general window hiding was first seen in Rob Pike's windowing system for Plan 9 (see his paper8½,the Plan 9 Window System). The use of the right-hand buttonfor hiding (rather than a menu of window operations as seenin ) came from experience of John Bradley'sxv. The disappearingtitle-bars that lwm used to sport came about from amisunderstanding of BeOS' method oficonizing windows, and were removed when I decided that theywere an annoying gimmick. The changing of cursor shape while reshapingis based on SGI's 4Dwm. The 'box' in the top-left cornerof the frame is meant to look like Pike's acme (see his paperAcme: A UserInterface for Programmers; if you want something like acme for Unix,try Gary Capell's Wily).The automatic window placement heuristics are simple but effective, basedupon personal experience. It would be nice to have a window manager thatdoes more window management for us.

The code is at heart a rewrite of 9wm by David Hoganandthe real thanks must go to him. It was seeing 9wm that made methink that writing a window manager wasn't such a ridiculous idea. I'dalready written a window manager similar to lwm for Plan 9, basedon - it seemed sensible to start the X version froma window manager with a similar outlook.

I'd long thought about writing a window manager (since 1993, in fact),but seeing the size of twm (and even uwm is larger than both Apolloone 2 3. 9wm and lwm) put me off. 9wm showed that a usefulwindow manager doesn't need to be huge in either source or binary.

The O'Reilly books Xlib Programming Manual and X ProtocolReference Manual (volumes one and zero respectively in their seriesof books on the X Window System) were invaluable to me while writinglwm. Thanks to Adrian Nye for his brave effort to make sense ofthe nonsensical.

The following were brave enough to use lwm very early on,and proved a great source of encouragement and ideas: James Carter,Mawuli Lodoh, Stephen Parker, Al Smith, and Marcel Ward.

Various people have contributed bug fixes; see the source for details.
