Description
IceWM serves as a window manager designed for the X Window System, prioritizing speed, user-friendliness, and unobtrusiveness. It features a taskbar integrated with a pager, offers global and specific keybindings for each window, and employs a dynamic menu system for efficient navigation. Users can manage application windows using both keyboard and mouse inputs, allowing for various actions such as minimizing to the taskbar, tray, or desktop, or even hiding them entirely. Quick window switching is facilitated through the Alt+Tab shortcut and the window list. A variety of customizable focus models can be selected from menus, enhancing user control. Additionally, IceWM efficiently accommodates setups with multiple monitors through RandR and Xinerama support. Its high level of configurability, theming options, and comprehensive documentation make it appealing for users. The manager also includes an optional external wallpaper manager that supports transparency, along with a straightforward session manager and a system tray for added functionality. Furthermore, the robust capabilities of IceWM allow users to tailor their desktop experience to suit individual preferences.
Description
The application allows for minimizing to the system tray through various methods such as CTRL + minimize, at startup, or always, and features customizable icons. It notifies users with a blinking tray icon upon receiving a bell signal and includes configurable window transparency options. Users can enjoy URL hyperlinking, portability, and the ability to store session configurations in files, enabling use on devices like USB drives, similar to portaPuTTY. The 'always on top' feature is easily accessible through the system menu, and there is support for Android ADB. Additionally, sessions can be loaded from files via the command line, and the software automatically selects 'sessions from file' in the absence of registry-stored sessions. It is now built on PuTTY 0.61, incorporating enhancements such as Windows 7 Jumplist and Aero support. The executables have been signed to alleviate Internet Explorer's concerns, all without necessitating code changes. A new URLs submenu has been introduced for improved keyboard access, while ensuring compatibility with older computers. The application benefits from a code signing certificate and timestamping, eliminating previous certificate errors. Initially compiled by Barry Haanstra, the project is now under the stewardship of Chris West (Faux), ensuring ongoing maintenance and improvements to the software. The evolution of this tool highlights a commitment to enhancing user experience and accessibility across various platforms.
