Sounds interesting. I'll look in to it. From an initial glance it looks like this would be brand new implementation in Slate (nothing that I have currently seems like it can be leveraged except for moving windows) so it may take some time.
I would totally love this too. Having a tiling layout like Xmonad or dwm (http://dwm.suckless.org) would make Slate even more awesome.
Upvoting this feature. That would me great!
This would be the killer feature! Another example would be i3 wich is my WM of choice for Xorg.
Tyler window manager attempts to do this in OSX, but works very poorly. Since OSX does not have native support for alternative window managers, im afraid any attempt to act as a window manager will feel kludgy at best. Not saying it shouldn't be attempted, but just setting expectations. Perhaps there is some way to tie in at a lower level than what Tyler is doing...
Another OS X window manager that implements automatic tiling is xnomad. I'd love to have this feature in slate!
I have a js config file that allows for very basic automatic tiling. Doesn't always trigger on events (haven't figured out why yet) but does seem to work generally well, and triggers on a keybinding when it misses an event. Please contribute, I would love to make this more functional! There's also some support for not including popup windows, but I think it could be better.
I'd be wary of bloating slate with stuff like this. Amethyst (http://ianyh.com/amethyst) already does this pretty well.
Oh that's great, surprised I hadn't seen that yet, thanks for the link
Any news on this?
More xmonad-y style behaviour. At least something like xmonad's Tall (or a way to implement it using layouts or binds that popen() stuff) would be awesome.
