Love the simplicity, and it looks like this could serve as a great example for people wanting to write their own WM.
Might I suggest adding a link to a screenshot directly in the README? I personally have a weird fascination with window managers so I'm likely to check this out regardless, but a screenshot could go a long way in terms of generating interest. If you care about that sort of thing. :)
I see you have a minimalist IRC client as well. Funny, I've been meaning to get back into C specifically to toy around with the idea of writing my own WM and IRC client. Both projects look like great examples, thanks for sharing!
Thanks! It's been an almost 8mo journey learning C to get to this point. Ultimately it was the people that I interacted with and the user contributions that propelled me to make xwm.
I intentionally omitted a screenshot in the README as xwm, by itself, is not attractive. Also, really I wanted to leave ricing/tweak/patching to be entirely user contribution driven. I may consider, though, adding a directory in the patches (https://github.com/mcpcpc/xwm-patches) repo for user contributed screenshots though.
