Musca

果蠅

 

A simple tiling window manager for X , with features nicked from ratpoison  and dwm :

一個x顯示服務上簡單的瓦片式窗口管理器，汲取了ratposion和dwm的一些特色。

• Musca operates as a tiling window manager  by default. It uses manual tiling, which means the user determines how the screen is divided into non-overlapping frames, with no restrictions on layout. Application windows always fill their assigned frame, with the exception of transient windows and popup dialog boxes which float above their parent application at the appropriate size. Once visible, applications do not change frames unless so instructed.

Musca 默認操做是瓦片式管理。Musca使用的是手動分割，意味着用戶決定如何分割屏幕成非重疊的框架，沒有佈局上的約束。應用程序窗口老是填充滿分配給他們的框架。浮於父應用上的零時窗口和彈出窗口除外。顯然，應用程序並不能改變框架，除非收到命令。

• Since not all applications suit tiling, a more traditional stacking window manager  mode is also available, allowing windows to float at any screen location and overlap.

並非全部的應用都適用瓦片式管理。傳統的堆棧式窗口管理模式也是很是有效的。讓窗口重疊和浮動於屏幕的任何地方。

• There are no built in status bars, panels, tabs or window decorations to take up screen real estate. If the user wants any of these things, there are plenty of external applications available to do the job. Window decoration is limited to a slender border, which is coloured to indicate keyboard focus.

Musca沒有構建狀態條和麪板，標籤或者窗口裝飾來佔用屏幕區域。若是用戶須要這些，能夠經過大量的擴展應用來實現這個功能.窗口裝飾是被限制的細小邊界。經過做色標示焦點框架（得到鍵盤輸入的框架）。

• Windows are placed in named groups which can be used in a similar fashion to virtual desktops. Groups can be added and removed on the fly, and each group has its own frame layout.

窗口放在組中，流行的虛擬桌面都採用類似的作法。組能夠增長和移除，每一個組都有本身的窗口布局。

• The excellent dmenu  utility is used to execute commands and launch applications, and it can also act as a window and group switcher. Basic EWMH support allows use of common panels, pagers and wmctrl.

優秀的dmenu組件用來執行命令和啓動應用程序，也能激活窗口和切換組。基於EWMH的支持容許使用公共的面板，pagers和wmctrl(窗口控件)

• Windows and frames are navigated and focused on any mouse button click, including rolling the wheel, or alternatively driven entirely by the keyboard. Simple key combinations exist for window switching, group switching, frame control and screen switching.

經過點擊鼠標按鍵，滾動滾輪來導航和聚焦窗口和框架，或者徹底的經過鍵盤來操做。簡單的按鍵組合來實現組切換，框架控制，屏幕切換。

• Frames can be dedicated to a single application window, preventing new windows usurping said frame. One frame per group can also be flagged as a catch-all so that all new application windows open there. The frame border colour changes to reflect these modes.

框架被單個應用窗口使用，阻止新窗口霸佔框架。每一個組中的一個框架能被標記爲總受器，這樣新應用程序的窗口都在這打開。框架的邊界顏色改變反應出這些方式

• Musca has multi-screen support out of the box, and will automatically create groups for every available screen.

Musca提供多屏支持，會在可用的屏幕上自動建立組

Project Background

Thanks to ratpoison and dwm authors. Musca's code is actually written from scratch, but a lot of useful stuff was gleaned from reading the source code of those two excellent projects.

感謝ratpoison和dwm的做者。Musca的代碼是亂畫亂寫的，但經過閱讀這個優秀的項目源碼收穫不少。

Extra kudos to dwm authors for creating dmenu! A true sliced-bread-beating invention.

額外的榮譽給dwm的做者由於他創造了dmenu。一個真的很是xx的創造。

But why do this when there are 17 million other window managers already swanning about the internet? Variety is the spice of life? Actually, ratpoison is very good and I used it for many years; but, I always wanted it to be just a little bit more friendly to the mouse, and just a little bit more informative about frame focus and layout, and just a little bit less modal (I can't think of a better way to say that) everywhere. Sleek little dwm is also great, and while it does focus-follow-mouse and has nice minimal yet informative frame borders, it can't do manual frame layouts and I couldn't add the feature to it satisfactorily (probably my fault). Other options like Ion3 and Xmonad were also fun, but ultimately had fluff of one sort or another. So, here is Musca: the strange offspring of ratpoison and dwm, and very likely only suited to my preferences ;-) Oh well.

可是爲何在互聯網上已經有數百萬的窗口管理器的時候還作這個呢。多樣是人生的味道？事實上，ratpoison很是好，我使用了不少年；可是，我老是想讓它更輕量一些，對鼠標友好一些，窗口聚焦和佈局更多一點點的信息，其餘少一點點（我不知道如何敘述）。輕量的dwm很是好，while it does focus-follow-mouse and has nice minimal yet informative frame borders(水平太差，這句不會譯)

，它不能手動的改變窗口布局，我沒有加入這個特徵。。（或許個人錯）。其餘的選項像Ion3和XMonad同樣有趣。可是最後有分類和其餘小東西。這就是Musca：ratpoison和dwm的強壯產物，貌似只合適個人喜好。Oh well.

Why is it named after a star constellation?

• So it didn't have "wm" in the name.
• Why not?
