+herbstluftwm is a manual tiling manager for X11, using Xlib and Glib.
+Layout is based on splitting frames into sub-frames, similar to i3 and
+musca. Tags/workspaces can be removed or added at run-time and each
+monitor displays exactly one tag at a time.
+
+Configuration is achieved through bash scripting in the file
+~/.config/herbstluftwm/autostart. An example autostart file is located
+in /etc/xdg/herbstluftwm/ along with example scripts for use with the WM.
+Additional examples are available at http://www.herbstluftwm.org/ along
+with detailed documentation.
