YAWM.js

Yet another Window Manager (in JavaScript, Yay!)

Huh, what is this?

Well, this is a new-years eve-experiment to see if one can make a simple WM in JavaScript. And I succeded to do that in just 42 lines of code.

It does not do much; it randomly places new windows. It can raise them for you, and move them in 7px-steps.

How to use

Git the files to some local folder, direct your terminal at that folder and type npm i to install and then type node yawm.js to start it. This procedure assumes that you've got npm and node.js correctly installed. You might want to try to test this using Xephyr (recursive X-server).

Super + U Raises the window
Super + [Arrow Keys] Moves the last raised window

To be continued in 2014 ;)
