PolytreeWM is an extremely fast, small, and dynamic tiling window manager for X.
In order to build PolytreeWM you need Cargo for Rust and the Xlib header files.
./configure
make clean all
sudo make install
Add the following line to your .xinitrc to start PolytreeWM using startx:
exec polytreewm
In order to connect PolytreeWM to a specific display, make sure that the
DISPLAY environment variable is set correctly, e.g.:
DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec polytreewm
This will start PolytreeWM on display :1 of the host foo.bar.
PolytreeWM is originally a fork of dwm, but is very different now. It also includes the following dwm patches:
