Multiple displays and display & dpi awareness in acme would make my day!
Multi-display looks easy - we just need handling for adding a new "row",
which is already handily abstracted.
Fitt's law aware mouse movement would be nice too, particularly on large
screens. You could slightly "trap" the mo

Yes, I know what Oberon is, I even used it. Peter mentioned something

Certainly. It doesn't currently build. Old binaries start up but
quickly crash. From memory, I don't believe keyboard input
currently works

Not to be pedantic, but note that there isn't any "voting"
here. Students come up with a proposal for something
they'd be interested in working on for the summer, and
the prospective mentors order them and fill however
many slots we get (short version). I'd l

If someone were interested in doing this in the short term,
the best option is likely tying it t

It would be nice to have something like old Oberon OS had; I think acme was
inspired in part by it (I may be wrong).
Some time ago, I had some ideas on windowing design; were anyone
interested, they're here:

Cohesive compilation of hacks?

touchscreen friendly.

Greetings,
I am a student interested in participating in GSoC under Plan 9. My
project would involve writing a new window manager as an alternative to rio:

I thought I'd say a few words informally as my proposal is
