Incorrect. Your desires are based on a misunderstanding of dwm. You have a 'layout' (this is floating, tiled, monocle, etc) and then you have 'tags'. Tags are used to determine which set of clients to display. Layouts are used to determine how displayed clients are arranged. Reordering windows within a layout is pointless, because when you are displaying two tags, and then toggle a third, what determines in which order the newly-displayed clients are arranged? If you only display one tag at a time, you're not using dwm properly. If you want wmii, you know where to find it. dwm's current interface is basically sound, and while people temporarily patch it up to make it act like a regular 'workspaces' window manager, most people I know eventually stop doing that as they realize how superior dwm's interface is. There isn't really another program out there that has this functionality in such a clean implementation -- dwm is the standard dynamic window manager. -- # Kurt H Maier
