[Lug-nuts] Tiling Windows Managers

Hi Folks, Once again I seek your experience and advice. I want a tiling window manager, and I have relatively few features: I'd like to be able to * open an arbitrary number of "panes" and run something in them. Maybe some predefined layouts. * cycle the panes * drag one pane on top of another and have that be interpreted as a pane swap. * resize panes by dragging the boundaries. I have tried i3 and xmonad and I got no-f******-where with them. It is not clear to me why they didn't work, but I don't thing I want to spend the effort to find out, unless somebody has a very strong endorsement for either of them. Anybody got any war stories about this that end with a victory? Thanks for the help, -- Chris. V:916.799.9461 F:916.974.0428 A: Because we read from top to bottom, left to right.
