dwm is a dynamic window manager for X11.

+ <h3>Philosophy</h3>
+ <p>
+ As founder and main developer of wmii I came to the conclusion that
+ wmii is too clunky for my needs. I don't need so many funky features
+ and all this hype about remote control through a 9P service, I only
+ want to manage my windows in a simple, but dynamic way. wmii never got
+ finished because I listened to users, who proposed arbitrary ideas I
+ considered useful. This resulted in an extreme <a href="http://www.jwz.org/doc/cadt.html">CADT</a>
+ development model, which was a mistake. Thus the philosophy of
+ dwm is simply <i>to fit my needs</i> (maybe yours as well). That's it.
