Flwm

Flwm - Fast Light Window Manager

flwm is a window manager based on wm2. Primary features are:

Nifty sideways titlebars.
No icons. You deiconize by picking off a pop-up menu. This means no space is wasted by icons.
The same pop-up menu controls multiple desktops and lets you launch programs.
Occupies as little screen space as possible. The border and titles are as thin as they could possibly be. And maximized windows waste zero pixels vertically.
Independent maximize buttons for width & height.
Understands Motif, KDE, and Gnome window manager hints, and works with SGI programs that assume 4DWM.
Really small and fast code.
