spectrwm is an open source and minimalistic window manager for X11 that features dynamic tiling, dynamic xrandr and multi-screen support.

spectrwm also provides navigation anywhere on all screens with either the mouse or keyboard, customizable status bar, human readable configuration file, restartable, quick launch menu, drag-to-float, resizable master area, user definable regions, user definable key bindings and modkey, user definable quirk bindings, user definable key bindings to launch apps, and much more.

What is new in this release:

  • This version adds the ability to move/resize floating windows beyond region boundaries.
  • It adds 'soft boundary' behavior to region boundaries.
  • When moving a window past the region boundary, the window will 'snap' to the region boundary if it is less than boundary_width distance beyond the edge.
  • A new boundary_width configuration option has been added.
  • The 'soft boundary' behavior can be disabled by setting this option to 0.
  • The ability to set tile_gap to negative values has been added, which makes it possible for tiled windows to overlap.
  • Set this to the opposite of border_width to collapse borders.

What is new in version 2.2.0:

  • Changes validation of default 'optional' programs to only occur when the respective config entry is overridden, not when the binding is overridden.
  • Adds details to the man page and spectrwm.conf on how to disable/override the default programs.
  • New quirks: NOFOCUSONMAP (don't change focus to the window when it gets mapped on the screen) and FOCUSONMAP_SINGLE (when the window is mapped, change focus if it is the only mapped window on the workspace using the quirk entry).
  • A few other updates and fixes.
