Notion, by contrast, does not automatically + change the tiling. You're in control. + +Features include: + +* Workspaces: each workspace has its own tiling. +* Multihead: the mod_xinerama plugin provides very nice dual-monitor + support. +* RandR: mod_xrandr expands on mod_xinerama and picks up changes in + the randr configuration without the need for restarting Notion +* Extensibility: Notion can be extended with lua scripts. + +NOTE: to launch it at X start just put 'exec notion' in a ~/.xinitrc +file. -- cgit v1.2.3
