A new window manager I never heard of before I read this article maybe 5 minutes ago. Seems to be interesting.
Looks like the creator likes german names for programs :
I liked the name of the e-mail client wanderlust. Unfortunately I am a happy mutt user, so I needed an other application with a similar name.
Not to forget :
the translation of the name is autumn air 
I, also, enjoy it. Although I have to say I find bspwm, much better. 
Not that it has anything to do with anything but I still canāt see that and in my head not read āBhaalspawnā.
ā¦Yes, I played a LOT of Baldurās Gate back in the day.
I donāt do games on computers at all ā¦ sorry I have no idea what Baldurās Gate isā¦ Iām simply out of touch.
I remember the name of the game but never played it. I think it was back in the 80 or early 90s
I do remember the name of the game
I know that itās the wrong thread for this link but

Looks very interesting! I think Iām going to give it a try. And itās in the Arch repos:

A beautiful name, but I highly doubt itās pronounced the way the author of the article claims:
@Tasia91
Youāre right. The transcription is totally wrong. 
Herbst ist quite easy. The e after the H ist pronounced like the e in evaluation. No letter muted.
A lot of english speaking people tend to pronounce that e close to the german ƶ. Like in herbal.
Luft would be pronounced Looft (oo like in the word school but shorter).
And the last part (āwmā) sounds like āvimā 
I was just listening to the pronunciation via Google Translate 
Itās an role playing game for the PC based on Dungeon and Dragons 3.5 Edition that came out in 1998. So a while ago. 
Have anyone been using hlwm? I canāt figure out how to resize (or at least zoom) floating frames with keyboard keys. The documentation is not the greatest and all Iāve seen so far refers only to mouse bindings 
The ānormalā resizing doesnāt seem to work on floating framesā¦
This is how I speak it as a native german speaker 
Does anyone know the origin of the name of this window manager? Was it created in autumn or does it have to do with the way of the wm works? (I ever used it, hence my question)
L"uh"ft is about right for US English speakersā¦
āDeutschesprache schwere Spracheā is what my oma always saidā¦ Also dann, viel spaĆ!!!
Hƶstluft
To me it sounds close to ā(lu)miĆØreā 
I think itās the latter. Itās probably was the authorās intention that the user should be as bad in pronouncing its name as in configuring it That seems to be my case anyways 
As for the nameā¦ hereās what the site offers in its FAQ:
I liked the name of the e-mail client wanderlust. Unfortunately I am a happy mutt user, so I needed an other application with a similar name.
So I gave it a try.
