I'm looking for wm with randr support, which can manage screens (monitors) independently. As I know, xmonad can this, but I hate tiling. So the question is: is it possible to setup xmonad so, that it looked like a tiling wm? ..... Is is possible to find some such sample configs?
What could you say about bluetile? I've heard that it merged into xmonad, but I haven't find it in darcs.
Try out the sample config at XMonad.Config.Bluetile. http://www.tiny9.com/u/config.bluetile If it is close to what you're looking for, you can get fancier from there by asking for help with specific behavior you want from XMonad. If you ask here or in #xmonad eventually someone will work out how to do it or say "hmm, that might be better done in a differnt wm." At least Config.Bluetile will get you started. Also note that bluetile has many keybindings different from the defaults. Use the source link at the top of the page to read them. All in all, though, if I was mostly interested in floating layouts and hated tiling, I'd probably look into other wm's. Unless I wanted to learn about Haskell. Hopefully the simple bluetile setup works well for you. There's a huge table of wms at http://www.gilesorr.com/wm if you end up dissatisfied. -- regards, wmw
