I don't know exactly what you mean with attaching windows to keyboard shortcuts but I've used StumpWM, dwm, awesome, and Xmonad in the past. While I did like tiling (manual more than dynamic/automatic) those were all a bit too bare-bones to me. E19 is a good compromise here: real tiling but still a full-fledged desktop with bars and gadgets. > Ultimately it is these shortcuts that act as a 'virtual desktop', as a > twm doesn't normally need a virtual desktop as you may be used to it. Ah, now I know what you mean. I think, dwm calls those "tags". The difference to virtual desktops is that the same window can have several tags. With virtual desktops, each window is on exactly one of them (or on all). > Sounds to me like the solution in E is rather good. Best ,or is it worst, > of both worlds. I'll have to try it. Yeah, E does a pretty good job. Anyway, that doesn't address my problem. The problem is that tiling works for the virtual desktops 0-0, 1-0, 2-0, ..., but it doesn't work for the virtual desktops 0-1, 0-2, 0-3, ...
