  1. .TH DWM 1 dwm-VERSION
  2. .SH NAME
  3. dwm \- dynamic window manager
  4. .SH SYNOPSIS
  5. .B dwm
  6. .RB [ \-v ]
  7. .SH DESCRIPTION
  8. dwm is a dynamic window manager for X. It manages windows in tiling and
  9. floating modes. Either mode can be applied dynamically, optimizing the
  10. environment for the application in use and the task performed.
  11. .P
  12. In tiling mode windows are managed in a master and stacking area. The master
  13. area contains the windows which currently need most attention, whereas the
  14. stacking area contains all other windows. In floating mode windows can be
  15. resized and moved freely. Dialog windows are always managed floating,
  16. regardless of the mode applied.
  17. .P
  18. Windows are grouped by tags. Each window can be tagged with one or multiple
  19. tags. Selecting certain tags displays all windows with these tags.
  20. .P
  21. dwm contains a small status bar which displays all available tags, the mode,
  22. the title of the focused window, and the text read from standard input. The
  23. selected tags are indicated with a different color. The tags of the focused
  24. window are indicated with a filled square in the top left corner. The tags
  25. which are applied to one or more windows are indicated with an empty square in
  26. the top left corner.
  27. .P
  28. dwm draws a small border around windows to indicate the focus state.

  131. .SH CUSTOMIZATION
  132. dwm is customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the source
  133. code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple.
  134. .SH CAVEATS
  135. The status bar may display
  136. .BR "EOF"
  137. when dwm has been started by an X session manager like
  138. .BR xdm (1),
  139. because those close standard output before executing dwm.
  140. .P
  141. Java applications which use the XToolkit/XAWT backend may draw grey windows
  142. only. The XToolkit/XAWT backend breaks ICCCM-compliance in recent JDK 1.5 and early
  143. JDK 1.6 versions, because it assumes a reparenting window manager. As a workaround
  144. you can use JDK 1.4 (which doesn't contain the XToolkit/XAWT backend) or you
  145. can set the following environment variable (to use the older Motif
  146. backend instead):
  147. .BR AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit .
