I am using XFCE as my Desktop Environment, and that includes XFWM - XFCE’s own window manager. I could have used another one, but I find XFWM to be quite good.

I did look briefly at what other WMs are out there, and what I pretty much ended with was that a Compositing window manager would be best (XFWM is one), and not just for fun visual effects. Actually, if that’s what you’re looking for Compiz might be what you want to give a try. But I’m not really looking for all those visual effects, and XFWM offered what I needed, so I didn’t see the need to look for anything else.

Having been using it for a little while now, I did however figure out a few nice tips & tricks that I thought I might share. Some might be quite known, and/or even common with other WMs, but either way they’re pretty nice and might come in handy every once in a while.
