Hi,
Recently, I have also noticed that, the Aura window manager (by
google for chrome-os; see [1]) can move the unfocused windows
automatically to meet the users' needs [2]. That is, when I drag one
window to cover the most area of another window, the wm would move the
second window to some empty space. This the auto-avoid feature seems
very cool!
I believe that such a feature can be achieved in sawfish. Can anyone
write an extension to address this feature request please?
Thanks in advance!
yours, m.w.
