Useful Apps
Windows Manager
- FVWM (http://www.fvwm.org/)
This is my favourite floating WM - dwm (http://dwm.suckless.org/)
This is my favourite tiling WM - i3 (http://i3.zekjur.net/)
This was my past favourite tiling WM (still my 2nd)
Browser
- Chromium (http://www.chromium.org/)
This is what I use as the main browser for my desktop. It is the best for FVWM or any other floating WM - Surf (http://surf.suckless.org/)
This is what I use if I’m using i3. It is simple and fast, and has no frills
Terminal
- Rxvt-unicode (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/rxvt-unicode.html)
Rxvt is a good terminal because it is fully customizable, and fast - Terminal (http://www.xfce.org/projects/terminal/)
This is a XFCE terminal. The good thing is it supports GUI cut and paste. This more useful for floating WM rather than tiling WM.
