Curiosity: DintWM - a "Tiling Window Manager" for Workbench
The principle of the Tiling Window Manager is mainly known in the Unix environment: In contrast to conventional interfaces, the individual windows do not overlap, instead they are arranged tile-like next to each other. With 'DintWM' such a window manager has now been implemented for AmigaOS for the first time.
Some animated screenshots on the Github website of the project illustrates DintWM, which is implemented as a commodity. Besides a status bar, which displays information about the various open windows, it also offers the "virtual workspaces" known from the Unix area. (cg) (Translation: bb)
