well, uhhm...

the windowmanager itself is ok, the idea of tiling is neat. but no, there
is absolutely no dokumentation, not even in the code. it couldn't even set
the titlebar to the top of my screen, that's not cool i think. well, but i
use it anyway.

Absolutely no documentation? It has about the best man page I have seen
for a GUI program, I think.

This is one of those obscure-ish window managers that is just lurking out
there needing to be found. There are lots that get no press, and are
fantastic and innovative. People often gripe about wanting to lose the WIMP
interface, and they don't realize the options ARE out there, and the
options go beyond just using CLI.
This is one of those WMs. If you are looking for something that
redefines graphic usage, without being clumsy, you should check this out.
The author of this WM has obviously put a lot of effort into making it
useful. Not only that, a rarity: It is well documented, and docs are
available in multiple formats. I know I've seen the announcements for
this WM fly by and I've consistently ignored it because I've never heard of
it, what a shame. Now it is my WM of choice.
As the author says, it is kinda like vi, it sounds weird, but once you
get the hang of it, watch out!

I used to swap window managers every week or two. That changed since I
found larswm. Why bother anymore?
