NAME¶

x-tile - select windows and adjust their tiling

SYNOPSIS¶

x-tile [option][rows][columns]

DESCRIPTION¶

This manual page documents briefly the x-tile command. x-tile is a program that allows tiling selected windows as desired. In addition of the predefined tilings, it allows user to create up to two user defined tilings to be applied later. It also provides a system tray icon for faster access to tiling menu.
