Branch: pkgsrc-2022Q4, Version: 1.16nb1, Package name: flwm-1.16nb1, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Flwm is an attempt to combine the best ideas seen in several window managers.
The primary influence and code base is from wm2 by Chris Cannam.

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 I could possibly make them. 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 assumme 4DWM.
* Really small and fast code.
