.TH DWM 1 dwm-VERSION .SH NAME dwm \- dynamic window manager .SH SYNOPSIS .B dwm .RB [ \-v ] .SH DESCRIPTION .B dwm is a dynamic window manager for X11. It manages windows in tiling and floating modes. Either mode can be applied dynamically, optimizing the environment for the application in use and the task performed. .P In tiling mode windows are managed in a master and stacking column. The master column contains the window which currently needs most attention, whereas the stacking column contains all other windows. In floating mode windows can be resized and moved freely. Dialog windows are always managed floating, regardless of the mode selected. .P Windows are grouped by tags. Each window can be tagged with one or multiple tags. Selecting a certain tag for viewing will display all windows with that tag. .P .B dwm has a small status bar which displays the text read from standard input, if written. Besides that, it displays all available tags, and the title of the focused window. It draws a 1-pixel border around windows to indicate the focus state. Unfocused windows contain a small bar in front of them displaying their tags and title. .SH OPTIONS .TP .B \-v prints version information to standard output, then exits. .SH USAGE .TP .B Mod1-Return Zoom current .B window to the .B master column. .TP .B Mod1-h Focus previous .B tag. .TP .B Mod1-j Focus next .B window. .TP .B Mod1-k Focus previous .B window. .TP .B Mod1-l Focus next .B tag. .TP .B Mod1-m Maximize current .B window. .TP .B Mod1-[0..n] Focus .B nth tag. .TP .B Mod1-space Toggle between .B tiled and .B floating mode (affects .BR "all windows" ). .TP .B Mod1-Shift-[0..n] Apply .B nth tag to current .B window. .TP .B Mod1-Shift-q Quit .B dwm. .TP .B Mod1-Shift-Return Start .B terminal. .TP .B Mod1-Control-[0..n] Append .B nth tag to current .B window. .TP .B Mod1-Button1 Move current .B window while dragging. .TP .B Mod1-Button2 Zoom current .B window to the .B master column. .TP .B Mod1-Button3 Resize current .B window while dragging. .SH CUSTOMIZATION .B dwm is customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the source code.
