VTWM

The Virtual Tab Window Manager (VTWM) is a virtual window manager with adjustable graphical complexity. With minimal settings, it is ideal for limited resource situations, using little memory, little CPU time, few colors, and little bandwidth. Fully blown, it supports m4 and regex processing of the resource file, sound effects, user-defined color icons and buttons, and more.

Fantastic.
The improvements of VTWM over TWM extend WAY beyond the Virtual Desktop.

I love it, I've tried just about every WM on this entire site. Window Management became an obsession. In the end, VTWM won out over all others.

I was looking for functionality, style, and size. VTWM is perfect in every way I could find.
