1 fibonacci layouts 2 ================= 3 4 Description 5 ----------- 6 This patch adds two new layouts (`spiral` and `dwindle`) that arranges all 7 windows in Fibonacci tiles: The first window uses half the screen, the second 8 the half of the remainder, etc. ASCII art and a real screenshot of the spiral 9 arrangement can be seen below. 10 11 +-----------+-----------+ +-----------+-----------+ 12 | | | | | | 13 | | 2 | | | 2 | 14 | | | | | | 15 | 1 +--+--+-----+ | 1 +-----+-----+ 16 | | 5|-.| | | | | 4 | 17 | +--+--+ 3 | | | 3 +--+--+ 18 | | 4 | | | | | 5|-.| 19 +-----------+-----+-----+ +-----------+-----+-----+ 20 spiral dwindle 21 22 [](https://schot.a-eskwadraat.nl/images/dwm-spiral.png) 23 24 *Links2, sic, xterm & xclock in spiral layout.* 25 26 Usage 27 ----- 28 1.
