and all this hype about remote control through a 9P service, I only
want to manage my windows in a simple, but dynamic way. wmii never got
finished because I listened to users, who proposed arbitrary ideas I
considered useful. This resulted in an extreme <a href="http://www.jwz.org/doc/cadt.html">CADT</a>
development model, which was a mistake. Thus the philosophy of

In contrast to wmii, dwm is only a window manager, and nothing else.
Hence, it is much smaller, faster and simpler.

dwm is only a single binary, it's source code is intended to never
exceed 2000 SLOC.

<li>
dwm is customized through editing its source code, that makes it
extremely fast and secure - it does not process any input data which
hasn't been known at compile time, except window title names.

dwm is based on tagging and dynamic window management (however
simpler than ion, wmii or larswm). It manages windows in
tiling and floating modes. Either mode can be applied dynamically,
depending on the application in use and the task performed.

<li>
dwm don't distinguishes between layers, there is no floating or
managed layer. Wether the clients of currently selected tag are
managed or not, you can re-arrange all clients on the fly. Popup-
and fixed-size windows are treated unmanaged.

Popup- and fixed-size windows are treated floating, however.

dwm is customized through editing its source code, that makes it
extremely fast and secure - it does not process any input data
which hasn't been known at compile time, except window title names
and status text read from standard input. You don't have to learn
Lua/sh/ruby or some weird configuration file format (like X
resource files), beside C to customize it for your needs,
you <b>only</b> have to learn C.

<li>
Because dwm is customized through editing its source code, it's
pointless to make binary packages of it. This keeps its userbase
small and elitist. No novices asking stupid questions.

dwm uses 1-pixel borders to provide the maximum of screen real
estate to clients. Small titlebars are only drawn in front of unfocused
clients.
