rio
rio
is Plan 9's native windowing system. Probably better referred to as a "rectangle multiplexer."
I use a script called r to set up the environment and launch rio
. Other scripts open windows and programs at pre-determined locations around the screen, based on the automatically detected screen resolution. I don't really use the rest of these anymore. Read and modify as needed.
Note: Sigrid has created a modified version of rio
for theming. This is not (yet?) in the 9front tree, but you can download it here.
Scripts: r, riostart, header, spread, verso, recto, m, mo, tobit
