Zimwm is a window manager for the ZDE project.
The Zeta Desktop Environment (ZDE) is an outstanding X11 window manager and set of tools designed specifically for advanced users and developers. Among the impressive suite of sub-projects that ZDE includes are imp, a library of core functions like linked lists, zwl, a simple widget toolkit and light X11 wrapper, and zimwm, the project's very own window manager.
Zimwm is, of course, at the forefront of the ZDE project, and it does not disappoint in terms of functionality or innovation. The developers have big plans for the future, including vi and emacs style keybindings, a command-line interface with shell-like controls for real-time manipulation of zimwm, and dynamically-generated menus and thumbnails of iconified windows and the pager. The team is utilizing new technologies such as the Composite extension, XRender, cairo, and freedesktop.org standards to provide the best possible experience for their users.
The development team drew inspiration from a wide range of sources, including Ion, lwm, Enlightenment DR16 and DR17, ratpoison, awm, waimea, ewm, failsafewm, heliwm, jwm, mosquito, nwm, pawm, phluid, swm, uwm, wmii, pekwm, xswm, fluxbox, openbox, any other box, sawfish, metacity, kwin, xfwm4, twm, icewm, and fvwm. The team has drawn upon the best features of each and combined them with their own innovations to bring ZDE to the next level.
What's new in this release? This update adds support for virtual workspaces/desktops and loadable modules, making it easier than ever to customize and control your installation of ZDE. Overall, ZDE is an exceptional window manager and set of tools with impressive features and functionality that are geared toward experienced users and developers alike.
