		sergiotapia on July 3, 2014 \| parent \| context \| on: Hydra: A lightweight OS X window manager with a po... If you're looking for a window manager for OSX without having to actually configure anything, you can try using Spectacle: http://spectacleapp.com/ For instance on my imac 27'' I have Option+Command+Left\|Right keys mapped to side (similar to windows 7. And I can also have 4 windows open at once using Shift+Option+Command+Up\|Down\|Left\|Right to move them to the different corners. Works really well with less than 2 minutes of setting the hotkey on a simple GUI configuration window.

(XKeyScore += 5) My mother was involved in civil rights, so she has a file. It's fine that I have a file too. Hopefully I'll be gone before they start going door to door. edit: http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/nsa-linux-journal-extrem...
