1 Openbox works with your applications, and makes your desktop easier to manage.
2 This is because the approach to its development was the opposite of what seems
3 to be the general case for window managers. Openbox was written first to comply
4 with standards and to work properly. Only when that was in place did the team
5 turn to the visual interface.
7 Openbox is fully functional as a stand-alone working environment, or can be used
8 as a drop-in replacement for the default window manager in the GNOME or KDE
9 desktop environments.
11 Openbox 3 is a completely new breed of window manager. It is not based upon any
12 existing code base, although the visual appearance has been based upon that of
13 Blackbox. Openbox 2 was based on the Blackbox 0.65.0 codebase.
15 Some of the things to look for in Openbox are:
16 * ICCCM and EWMH compliance!
17 * Very fast
18 * Chainable key bindings
19 * Customizable mouse actions
20 * Window resistance
21 * Multi-head Xinerama support!
22 * Pipe menus
