Ratpoison
A keyboard-driven X11 tiling manager that replaces overlapping desktop windows, title bars and pointer-centric controls with maximised frames that can be split into panes. Commands and bindings are configured in a text file, and its deliberately minimal interface suits users who want to manage windows without a mouse. Ratpoison is a keyboard-driven X11 manager whose command-oriented interaction is modeled on GNU Screen.
