Window manager, how to write ?

[Aleksej Struk]

Try to read the following book.

http://www.sbin.org/doc/Xlib/index_contents.html

Although it describes the basics and concepts of X server, the book
gives an example of a most (imao) simplistic WM you can find. There imao
you can find at least the idea of how to write WM.

Unfortunatelly the book itself (at least via this link i found) is a bit
out of date. But still it gives lots of hints :), and should be
helpfull.

Regards,

   Aleksej.
