Hi :D, first of all. Thank you very much for your work, this is a great project. I'm moving from linux and as a i3/dwm user Windows default interface seems a little off :/. I found this project and it's working great. If you don't mind I would like to know what is the plans for the future of the project :D. In addition, can you answer 2 questions please?

The project supports multiple screens? The project have a configuration file? For custom configs?

Thank you very much for you time :D

I use this dwm-win32 everyday on windows, so I don't see it going anywhere even though there may not be any commits.

The project supports multiple screens?

I don't use multiple monitors. More thoughts are mentioned here and how I would like to support it via lua. If someone is willing to send a PR more than happy to merge it.

The project have a configuration file? For custom configs?

Currently it is similar to the original dwm project where config file is code and you need to compile it. There is a ci task you should be able to change to fit your needs since compiling c projects on windows can be pain. Lua would solve this.

I do have lots of goals to make dwm-win32 better but currently it is struggle in prioritization with my other open/closed source projects that I work on personal time.
