WindowMaker 0.92.0 released

WindowMaker v0.92.0 was released a couple of days ago. The last release (0.91.0) was made nine months ago. I’ve been using WindowMaker as my window manager ever since I started using GNU/Linux.

Optical illusion

I’m normally not too impressed with optical illusions, but this one’s pretty cool. The cool thing here is how the magenta spots disappear when you stare focus on the cross in the center and all you see is a moving green spot. I’m not sure how it works, but it seems to me the brain […]

Yet More Firefox Extensions

Every now and then I take a little time to check out Mozilla Firefox extensions to see if anything new has popped up. This time I found some extensions that I hadn’t noticed before but which are highly recommended by me from now on. Document map Document Map displays the current HTML page’s structure (headings, […]

Ion2 window manager

Recently, I’ve been giving the Ion2 window manager a try. Ion2 is a window manager with a twist. Window managers like it are sometimes refered to as tiling window managers. Instead of the normal ‘floating’ windows, Ion2 tries to give each window as much screen space as possible. Normally, this would mean all windows are […]
