I also use wmii - because it fit my needs reasonable well. Its not perfect, but good enough to not make me even think about writing my own tool. Even if wmii crashes every couple of days you only loose some layout because so restart it and by happy :) Maybe the awesome window manager is another possibility. I never used it though. If all you need is thunderbird and firefox there is no need for WMII. However having many windows its the fastest way to manage them because my workflow is: goto tag, find window. Sometimes I switch tasks so I can just keep everthing open and return to a tag later. Marc Weber
