Blackbox is the fast, lightweight window manager for the X Window System you
have been looking for, without all those annoying dependencies. It is built
with C++ and contains completely original code (even though the graphics
implementation is similar to that of Window Maker).
Blackbox is written to the NetWM specification, which allows integration with
modern desktop managers including KDE and Gnome.
The port also provides root window changing tools, bsetroot and bsetbg, that
can be installed alone, without the window manager and accompanying files.
Clementine is based on aewm. It has title bars, iconizing, and
styles. It is still in an early stage of development.
CTWM is an extension to twm, that support multiple virtual screens,
and a lot of other goodies.
You can use and manage up to 32 virtual screens called workspaces.
You swap from one workspace to another by clicking on a button in an
optionnal panel of buttons (the workspace manager) or by invoking a function.
You can custom each workspace by choosing different colors, names
and pixmaps for the buttons and background root windows.
Main features are :
- Optional 3D window titles and border (ala Motif).
- Shaped, colored icons.
- Multiple icons for clients based on the icon name.
- Windows can belong to several workspaces.
- A map of your workspaces to move quickly windows between
different workspaces.
- Animations : icons, root backgrounds and buttons can be animated.
- Pinnable and sticky menus.
- etc...
dwm is a minimalistic window manager. It manages windows in tiling and floating

simpler.
It consists of a single binary, configuration is done at compile-time by a
single config.h file. dwm reads from standard input to print arbitrary status
text such as the date and/or system load.
