I have perhaps ten or fifteen windows open.
I'd like a program which automatically resizes all the windows and arranges them in columns and rows across the screen (a grid formation), automatically figuring out the largest size for the windows so that they still fit.
This isn't an "Expose" type program - I want the windows to stay resized.
I am using OpenBox to do my window management and am otherwise happy with it, I don't want to find a whole new window manager just to solve this problem.
The program Tile is almost perfect, but it doesn't know how to lay the windows out in a grid formation.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
