17 Description: keyboard-friendly window manager with tiled windows
18 ParticleMan is a free version of the Ion3 window manager.
20 Ion, based on PWM, is an unusual window manager with no overlapping
21 windows. Windows are placed in tabbed frames which may be arbitrarily
22 split to create additional frames, making keyboard navigation much
23 easier. Flexible configuration is possible thanks to Lua, which is
24 used as the configuration language.
26 There is also support for so-called 'floating workspaces' where
27 windows are managed the conventional way, so that you can still run
28 applications which do not fit very well into Ion's window management
29 approach. A pwm3 binary is included which starts ParticleMan with
30 floating workspaces as the default, thus replacing the now obsolete
33 Package: particleman-dev

41 Description: development files
