lxsession is a standard-compliant X11 session manager with shutdown/reboot/suspend supports via HAL and gdm.

Golem is an X11 Window Manager. Design goals are that it be fast and lightweight, as well as customizable in any way that will not prevent the first goal from being realized.

LXMenuEditor is a small, simple, free, open source, easy to use application that allows you to customize the LXDE menu. LXMenuEditor is very useful for people that want to create their own, customized menus for LXDE. This editor can also be used to customize GNOME's main menu and menus of other enviroments, although it's specially designed for the LXDE environment.

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).

Plank is an elegant, simple and clean dock.

This is a small application (using GTK+) which lets you select your window manager. It looks for a file named .selectwmrc in the user's directory which contains a list of window managers. When you start X it should show a list which lets you choose your window manager (by double clicking on it with the mouse or with the arrow keys and the return or space key).

Peksystray is a small system tray (also called notification tray) designed for all lightweight window managers that support docking. As more and more applications use a small icon in the system tray to provide some additional functionality and information, it becomes useful for everyone to have common access to them. While "heavy" window managers (Gnome, KDE...) come with a system tray embedded in the rest of the desktop, lighter window managers (Window Maker, Fluxbox ...) do not have this feature. Peksystray is a very simple and light implementation of a system tray for any window manager supporting docking, conforming to the System Tray freedesktop.org standard. Peksystray provides a window where icons will automatically add up depending on the requests from the applications. Both the size of the window and the size of the icons can be selected by the user. If the window is full, it can automatically display another window in order to display more icons. Peksystray has been named after PekWM.

treewm is a window manager that tries to implement a new concept. In addition to the client windows the user can create desktops which can themselves contain windows and desktops. By arranging the windows in such a tree the user is able to manage his tasks efficiently treewm is feature-rich, flexible and provides a powerful concept. However, treewm's look is is rather puristic, and its feel is not always intuitive, but with a bit of practise it should be very effective to use. Short feature list (some of them are quite unique among window managers): - Allows to create desktops and to arbitrarily move windows between desktops - Many options (such as sticky, autoresize, always on top, or the focus or raise policy) can be set for any desktop or window - Can be fully customized using the configuration file - Has a very powerful (somewhat vi-like) command mode, and can be controlled from shell scripts via a FIFO - Icons can be placed on desktops that can execute arbitrary commands - Only uses very common libraries, in particular it doesn't require GTK, Qt, or anything like that

Obmenu is a menu editor designed for Openbox. It's easy to use, allowing you to get the most out of the powerful Openbox menu system, while hiding the xml layout from the user. It can install dynamic menus (pipe menus), such as Gnome menus or a quick-navigator. You can also use the obxml module to easily write pipe menus of your own in Python.

With AllTray you can dock any application with no native tray icon (like Evolution, Thunderbird, terminals) into the system tray. A high-light feature is that a click on the "close" button will minimize back to system tray. It works well with GNOME, KDE, XFCE 4*, Fluxbox* and WindowMaker*.
