pytyle (extensible tiling manager).
|
|
|
|

2017-04-23 02:03:22 +02:00
|
|
|
An extensible tiling manager that can fit into any EWMH compatible
|
2016-07-26 02:59:53 +02:00
|
|
|
window manager. Uses Python and the Python X Library.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
PyTyle is meant to run in the background, so run it like so:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pytyle &
|

|
|
|
You may want to add the above command to your ~/.xinitrc or
|
|
|
|
|
another startup script like ~/.config/openbox/autostart.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you're having trouble running it on start up, try this in
|
|
|
|
|
your ~/.xinitrc:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(sleep 5 && pytyle) &
|
2017-04-23 02:03:22 +02:00
|
|
|
|
2016-07-26 02:59:53 +02:00
|
|
|
It will give the window manager time to startup before PyTyle starts
|
|
|
|
|
asking it for information. Increase/decrease the sleep timeout
|
|
|
|
|
appropriately.

|
|
|
After PyTyle has been executed for the first time, it will create a
|
2016-07-26 02:59:53 +02:00
|
|
|
configuration file in your XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pytyle/ directory (usually
|
|
|
|
|
~/.config/pytyle) called pytylerc. The comments in the configuration
|
|
|
|
|
file will explain everything.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It has been tested relatively well on OpenBox and partially on Fluxbox.
|
2017-04-23 02:03:22 +02:00
|
|
|
It should, in theory, work with any window manager complying with the
|
2016-07-26 02:59:53 +02:00
|
|
|
EWMH standards.
