qtile

A full-featured, hackable tiling window manager written and configured in Python. More information: https://docs.qtile.org/en/latest/manual/commands/shell/index.html.

• Start the window manager, if it is not running already (should ideally be run from .xsession or similar):
  qtile start
• Check the configuration file for any compilation errors (default location is ~/.config/qtile/config.py):
  qtile check
• Show current resource usage information:
  qtile top --force
• Open the program xterm as a floating window on the group named test-group:
  qtile run-cmd --group {{test-group}} --float {{xterm}}
• Restart the window manager:
  qtile cmd-obj --object cmd --function restart
