Nickleby is a minimal window manager. It has no menus, toolbars, nor icons, and it adds no window decoration to client windows other than two title bars, one at the top of windows, and one at the bottom of windows.

OBPager is a lightweight pager designed to be used with NetWM-compliant window managers like OpenBox. Unlike many other pagers out there, OBPager has very few dependencies, requiring only Xlib and glibc++ (no Gnome or KDE necessary).

TinyWM is a ridiculously tiny window manager implemented in nearly as few lines of C as possible, without being obfuscated or entirely useless. It allows you to move, resize, focus (sloppy), and raise windows.

w9wm is a quick & dirty hack based on 9wm, the wonderful "template" window manager made by David Hogan. 9wm is really nice for all day use (I mean, a large Emacs window covering the whole screen and a terminal to use Lynx and browse the web ;-)) provided that you do not have a large number of windows on your screen. But in some occasions it is not the case (ie. you have to telnet to 4-5 remote machines), which is painful with 9wm. This need for virtual screens motivated this about 50 lines hack. w9wm brings support for virtual screens (provided you use the second button, aka middle button to select one virtual screen) as well as for key bindings (to switch from one window to another).

This package contains the sample X Compositing Manager, which uses the Composite, Damage, Fixes, and Render extensions to create shadows around windows, translucent windows and menus, and fading effects, when run on a capable X Server.

The wmanager-addons package contains a couple of helper shell scripts and manual pages for the x11/wmanager window manager selector. They were originally part of the Debian wmanager package, but have later been ported to other operating systems.

The appres program prints the resources seen by an application (or subhierarchy of an application) with the specified class and instance names. It can be used to determine which resources a particular program will load.

Hotwire is an object-oriented hypershell. It is a shell designed for systems programming (files, processes), and thus it is in the same conceptual category of software as the Unix shell+terminal and Windows PowerShell.

xbanish hides the mouse cursor when you start typing, and shows it again when the mouse cursor moves or a mouse button is pressed. This is similar to xterm's pointerMode setting, but xbanish works globally in the X11 session.
