  10. CLFSWM icon
     Like

    CLFSWM is a highly dynamic. 100% Common Lisp X11 window manager. By default there is only one frame (the root frame). Other frames are created/deleted on the fly. A window can be in more than one frame, so it can have multiple views of the same windows.

    This little thingy allows you to start X with NumLock turned on (which is a feature that a lot of people seem to miss and nobody really knew how to achieve this).

    Xmobar is a minimalistic status bar. It was originally designed and implemented to work with xmonad, but it is actually usable with any window manager in X11 and also (via its text output mode) Wayland.
