9wm is an open source stacking window manager for X11, written by David Hogan (dhog) in 1994 to emulate the Plan 9 Second Edition window manager, 8½. Many later minimalist window managers for X were either inspired by, or directly derived from, 9wm. 9wm takes only 0.4 MB in RAM.〔()〕 The (README ) file in the 9wm source distribution describes it like so: 9wm is an X window manager which attempts to emulate 9wm has an undocumented -nostalgia option, for a Blit cursor, which John Mackin insisted on. ==Features== * Written in C using the Xlib toolkit. No other dependencies. * A right click on the root window gives a menu that provides window operations (Move, Resize, Delete, Hide), a list of hidden windows which may be unhidden by selecting from the menu, and a command to launch a terminal emulator, typically 9term. There are no keyboard controls. * Window borders originally did nothing but indicate focus—draggable borders for move and resize were eventually added to rio in Plan 9 from Bell Labs and (Plan 9 from User Space ) * Has a limit of 32 hidden windows. * New windows are drawn by prompting the user to "sweep out" a screen rectangle for the window, which may be considered focus stealing if an application unexpectedly requests a new window. * A right click on the desktop gives a context menu that provides window motion and the facility to launch a terminal emulator. * No menubar * No titlebars * No multiple desktops * No maximize facility * No desktop shortcuts * No desktop wallpaper * No theme support * No XKeys support * A three button mouse is required * Uses a click to focus model * No additional task switching facility * Applications are launched via a terminal only * Supports focus stealing by failing the launch test, giving focus to window placement facility * Not accessibility friendly - utilizes middle click, and right click functionality and has no keyboard equivalents for some operations 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「9wm」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
