From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Tiling window manager users: how exactly do you use yours?

Do you have advanced keybindings for bringing up frequently used programs?

Are there less common layouts you use frequently?

Do you use any advanced or fancy features?

AwesomeWM:

  • 3 tags (term, web and files)
  • A different layout for every tag (CornerSE, Maximize and Fair, in that order)
  • Super+/ for a hotkey list
  • Super+P for rofi -show run
  • Super+C for a scratchpad with profanity
  • Super+V for a scratchpad with cmus
  • Super+X for a scratchpad with notes
  • Super+~ for a quake term
  • Most of the default Awesome keybindings

In the files tag I run terms and Thunar, in the web tag qutebrowser and everything else in the term tag.
