Check other window managers #2

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
This is just a note to check other window managers. During development, I 
primarily work with both Openbox and KWin (both seem to be working at full 
capacity so far). Hopefully they are different enough to warrant only small 
modifications for accommodating other window managers.

Anyway, here's a list I'd like to check out:

1. Compiz
2. Metacity
2. Fluxbox
3. PekWM

Also, for compositing window managers, it's usually very bad to have various 
effects enabled while PyTyle is working. It won't stop PyTyle from working 
properly, but it is definitely slow and can be a bit ugly at times.

Tried pytyle2 with compiz and got no response; pytyle 1 initiates just fine, 
but pytyle2 does not tile when issued Alt+A, and gives no terminal feedback. 
Confirmed to work with Openbox as expected.

Pytyle 1 will not work if one switches viewports with compiz 0.9.5- it simply 
moves any windows opened on another workspace back to whatever workspace one 
moves to. I can provide any information you need to help troubleshoot this 
issue.

Tried pytyle2 on fluxbox with no great success. It doesn't tile properly when 
Ctrl-A is pressed. It generally seems buggy to my fluxbox configuration.

Old pyTyle seems to work on fluxbox though.
