NAME
spectrwm — window manager for X11
SYNOPSIS
spectrwm
DESCRIPTION
spectrwm is a minimalistic window manager that tries to stay out of the way so that valuable screen real
estate can be used for much more important stuff. It has sane defaults and does not require one to learn
a language to do any configuration. It was written by hackers for hackers and it strives to be small,
compact and fast.
When spectrwm starts up, it reads settings from its configuration file, spectrwm.conf. See the
“CONFIGURATION FILES” section below.
The following notation is used throughout this page:
M Meta
S Shift
⟨Name⟩ Named key
M1 Mouse button 1
M3 Mouse button 3
spectrwm is very simple in its use. Most of the actions are initiated via key or mouse bindings. See
the “BINDINGS” section below for defaults and customizations.
CONFIGURATION FILES
spectrwm first tries to open the user specific file, ~/.spectrwm.conf. If that file is unavailable, it
then tries to open the global configuration file /etc/spectrwm.conf.
The format of the file is
keyword = setting
For example:
color_focus = red
Enabling or disabling an option is done by using 1 or 0 respectively.
Colors need to be specified per the XQueryColor(3) specification.
Comments begin with a #. When a literal ‘#’ is desired in an option, then it must be escaped with a
backslash. i.e. \#
The file supports the following keywords:
autorun
Launch an application in a specified workspace at start-of-day. Defined in the format
ws[idx]:application, e.g. ws[2]:xterm launches an xterm in workspace 2.
bar_action
External script that populates additional information in the status bar, such as battery life.
bar_at_bottom
Place the statusbar at the bottom of each region instead of the top.
bar_border[x]
Border color of the status bar(s) in screen x.
bar_border_unfocus[x]
Border color of the status bar(s) on unfocused region(s) in screen x.
bar_border_width
Set status bar border thickness in pixels. Disable border by setting to 0.
bar_color[x]
Background color of the status bar(s) in screen x.
bar_enabled
Set default bar_toggle state; default is 1.
bar_enabled_ws[x]
Set default bar_toggle_ws state on workspace x; default is 1.
bar_font
Font used in the status bar. Either Xft or X Logical Font Description (XLFD) may be used to specify
fonts. Fallback fonts may be specified by separating each font with a comma. If all entries are in
XLFD syntax, font set will be used. If at least one entry is Xft, Xft will be used. Note that if Xft
is in use, only the first font that successfully loads will be used regardless of missing glyphs. The
default is to use font set. Also note that dmenu(1) does not support Xft fonts.
Xft examples:
bar_font = Terminus:style=Regular:pixelsize=14:antialias=true
bar_font = -*-profont-medium-*-*-*-11-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,Terminus:pixelsize=14,-*-clean-medium-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Font set examples:
bar_font = -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
bar_font = -*-profont-medium-*-*-*-11-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,-*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*,-*-clean-medium-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
To list the available fonts in your system see fc-list(1) or xlsfonts(1) manpages. The xfontsel(1)
application can help with the XLFD setting.
bar_font_color[x]
Color of the font in status bar in screen x.
bar_format
Set the bar format string, overriding clock_format and all of the enabled options. The format is
passed through strftime(3) before being used. It may contain the following character sequences:
Character sequence Replaced with
+< Pad with a space
+A Output of the external script
+C Window class (from WM_CLASS)
+D Workspace name
+F Floating indicator
+I Workspace index
+M Number of iconic (minimized) windows in workspace
+N Screen number
+P Window class and instance separated by a colon
+S Stacking algorithm
+T Window instance (from WM_CLASS)
+U Urgency hint
+V Program version
+W Window name (from _NET_WM_NAME/WM_NAME)
++ A literal ‘+’
All character sequences may limit its output to a specific length, for example +64A. Any characters
that don't match the specification are copied as-is.
bar_justify
Justify the status bar text. Possible values are left, center, and right.
Note that if the output is not left justified, it may not be properly aligned in some circumstances,
due to the white-spaces in the default static format. See the bar_format option for more details.
bind[x]
Bind key combo to action x. See the “BINDINGS” section below.
border_width
Set window border thickness in pixels. Disable all borders by setting to 0.
boundary_width
Set region containment boundary width in pixels. This is how far a window must be dragged/resized
beyond the region edge before it is allowed outside the region. This has no effect when manipulating
the window with key bindings. Disable the window containment effect by setting to 0.
clock_enabled
Enable or disable displaying the clock in the status bar. Disable by setting to 0 so a custom clock
could be used in the bar_action script.
iconic_enabled
Display the number of iconic (minimized) windows in the status bar. Enable by setting to 1.
color_focus
Border color of the currently focused window. Default is red.
color_focus_maximized
Border color of the currently focused, maximized window. Defaults to the value of color_focus.
color_unfocus
Border color of unfocused windows, default is rgb:88/88/88.
color_unfocus_maximized
Border color of unfocused, maximized windows. Defaults to the value of color_unfocus.
dialog_ratio
Some applications have dialogue windows that are too small to be useful. This ratio is the screen
size to what they will be resized. For example, 0.6 is 60% of the physical screen size.
disable_border
Remove border when bar is disabled and there is only one window on the region.
focus_close
Window to put focus when the focused window is closed. Possible values are first, next, previous
(default) and last. next and previous are relative to the window that is closed.
focus_close_wrap
Whether to allow the focus to jump to the last window when the first window is closed or vice versa.
Disable by setting to 0.
focus_default
Window to put focus when no window has been focused. Possible values are first and last (default).
focus_mode
Window focus behavior with respect to the mouse cursor. Possible values:
default Set window focus on border crossings caused by cursor motion and window interaction.
follow Set window focus on all cursor border crossings, including workspace switches and
changes to layout.
manual Set window focus on window interaction only.
java_workaround
Workaround a Java GUI rendering issue on non-reparenting window managers by impersonating the LG3D
window manager, written by Sun. Default is 1.
keyboard_mapping
Clear all key bindings and load new key bindings from the specified file. This allows you to load
pre-defined key bindings for your keyboard layout. See the “KEYBOARD MAPPING FILES” section below
for a list of keyboard mapping files that have been provided for several keyboard layouts.
layout
Select layout to use at start-of-day. Defined in the format
ws[idx]:master_grow:master_add:stack_inc:always_raise:stack_mode, e.g. ws[2]:-4:0:1:0:horizontal sets
worskspace 2 to the horizontal stack mode, shrinks the master area by 4 ticks and adds one window to
the stack, while maintaining default floating window behavior. Possible stack_mode values are
vertical, vertical_flip, horizontal, horizontal_flip and fullscreen.
See master_grow, master_shrink, master_add, master_del, stack_inc, stack_dec, and always_raise for
more information. Note that the stacking options are complicated and have side-effects. One should
familiarize oneself with these commands before experimenting with the layout option.
This setting is not retained at restart.
modkey
Change mod key. Mod1 is generally the ALT key and Mod4 is the windows key on a PC.
name
Set the name of a workspace at start-of-day. Defined in the format ws[idx]:name, e.g. ws[1]:Console
sets the name of workspace 1 to “Console”.
program[p]
Define new action to spawn a program p. See the “PROGRAMS” section below.
quirk[c:i:n]
Add "quirk" for windows with class c, instance i and name n. See the “QUIRKS” section below.
region
Allocates a custom region, removing any autodetected regions which occupy the same space on the
screen. Defined in the format screen[idx]:widthxheight+x+y, e.g. screen[1]:800x1200+0+0.
To make a region span multiple monitors, create a region big enough to cover them all, e.g.
screen[1]:2048x768+0+0 makes the region span two monitors with 1024x768 resolution sitting one next
to the other.
region_padding
Pixel width of empty space within region borders. Disable by setting to 0.
spawn_position
Position in stack to place newly spawned windows. Possible values are first, next, previous and last
(default). next and previous are relative to the focused window.
stack_enabled
Enable or disable displaying the current stacking algorithm in the status bar.
term_width
Set a preferred minimum width for the terminal. If this value is greater than 0, spectrwm will
attempt to adjust the font sizes in the terminal to keep the terminal width above this number as the
window is resized. Only xterm(1) is currently supported. The xterm(1) binary must not be setuid or
setgid, which it is by default on most systems. Users may need to set program[term] (see the
“PROGRAMS” section) to use an alternate copy of the xterm(1) binary without the setgid bit set.
tile_gap
Pixel width of empty space between tiled windows. Negative values cause overlap. Set this to the
opposite of border_width to collapse the border between tiles. Disable by setting to 0.
urgent_collapse
Enables hiding of placeholders in the urgency hint indicator for workspaces that do not have any
urgent windows. Enable by setting to 1.
urgent_enabled
Enable or disable the urgency hint indicator in the status bar. Note that many terminal emulators
require an explicit setting for the bell character to trigger urgency on the window. In xterm(1),
for example, one needs to add the following line to .Xdefaults:
xterm.bellIsUrgent: true
verbose_layout
Enable or disable displaying the current master window count and stack column/row count in the status
bar. Enable by setting to 1. See master_add, master_del, stack_inc and stack_dec for more
information.
window_class_enabled
Enable or disable displaying the window class name (from WM_CLASS) in the status bar. Enable by
setting to 1.
window_instance_enabled
Enable or disable displaying the window instance name (from WM_CLASS) in the status bar. Enable by
setting to 1.
window_name_enabled
Enable or disable displaying the window display name (from _NET_WM_NAME/WM_NAME) in the status bar.
Enable by setting to 1.
To prevent excessively large window names from pushing the remaining text off the bar, it's limited
to 64 characters, by default. See the bar_format option for more details.
warp_pointer
Centers the mouse pointer on the focused window when using key bindings to change focus, switch
workspaces, change regions, etc. Enable by setting to 1.
workspace_limit
Set the total number of workspaces available. Minimum is 1, maximum is 22, default is 10.
PROGRAMS
spectrwm allows you to define custom actions to launch programs of your choice and then bind them the
same as with built-in actions. See the “BINDINGS” section below.
Custom programs in the configuration file are specified as follows:
program[action] = progpath [arg [arg ...]]
action is any identifier that does not conflict with a built-in action or keyword, progpath is the
desired program, and arg is zero or more arguments to the program.
Remember that when using # in your program call, it must be escaped with a backslash. i.e. \#
The following argument variables will be substituted for values at the time the program is spawned:
$bar_border
$bar_color
$bar_font
$bar_font_color
$color_focus
$color_unfocus
$dmenu_bottom -b if bar_at_bottom is enabled.
$region_index
$workspace_index
Example:
program[ff] = /usr/local/bin/firefox http://spectrwm.org/
bind[ff] = MOD+Shift+b # Now M-S-b launches firefox
To cancel the previous, unbind it:
bind[] = MOD+Shift+b
Default programs:
menu dmenu_run $dmenu_bottom -fn $bar_font -nb $bar_color -nf $bar_font_color -sb
$bar_border -sf $bar_color
term x-terminal-emulator
lock xscreensaver-command -lock # optional
initscr initscreen.sh # optional
screenshot_all screenshot.sh full # optional
screenshot_wind screenshot.sh window # optional
Note that optional default programs will not be validated unless overridden. If a default program fails
validation, you can resolve the exception by installing the program, modifying the program call or
disabling the program by freeing the respective key binding.
For example, to override menu:
program[menu] = launchy
To unbind menu and prevent it from being validated:
bind[] = MOD+p

Custom bindings in the configuration file are specified as follows:
bind[action] = keys
action is one of the actions listed above (or empty to unbind) and keys is in the form of zero or more
modifier keys (MOD, Mod1, Shift, etc.) and one or more normal keys (b, Space, etc.), separated by ‘+’.
Example:
bind[reset] = Mod4+q # bind Windows-key + q to reset
bind[] = Mod1+q # unbind Alt + q
To use the currently defined modkey, specify MOD as the modifier key.
Multiple key combinations may be bound to the same action.
To bind non-latin characters such as å or π you must enter the xkb character name instead of the
character itself. Run xev, focus the window and press the specific key and in the terminal output read
the symbol name. In the following example for å:
KeyPress event, serial 41, synthetic NO, window 0x2600001,
root 0x15a, subw 0x0, time 106213808, (11,5), root:(359,823),
state 0x0, keycode 24 (keysym 0xe5, aring), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 2 bytes: (c3 a5) "å"
XmbLookupString gives 2 bytes: (c3 a5) "å"
XFilterEvent returns: False
The xkb name is aring. In other words, in spectrwm.conf add:
bind[program] = MOD+aring
KEYBOARD MAPPING FILES
Keyboard mapping files for several keyboard layouts are listed below. These files can be used with the
keyboard_mapping setting to load pre-defined key bindings for the specified keyboard layout.
spectrwm_cz.conf Czech Republic keyboard layout
spectrwm_es.conf Spanish keyboard layout
spectrwm_fr.conf French keyboard layout
spectrwm_fr_ch.conf Swiss French keyboard layout
spectrwm_se.conf Swedish keyboard layout
spectrwm_us.conf United States keyboard layout
QUIRKS
spectrwm provides "quirks" which handle windows that must be treated specially in a tiling window
manager, such as some dialogs and fullscreen apps.
The default quirks are described below:
Firefox-bin:firefox-bin TRANSSZ
Firefox:Dialog FLOAT
Gimp:gimp FLOAT + ANYWHERE
MPlayer:xv FLOAT + FULLSCREEN + FOCUSPREV
OpenOffice.org 2.4:VCLSalFrame FLOAT
OpenOffice.org 3.1:VCLSalFrame FLOAT
pcb:pcb FLOAT
xine:Xine Window FLOAT + ANYWHERE
xine:xine Panel FLOAT + ANYWHERE
xine:xine Video Fullscreen Window FULLSCREEN + FLOAT
Xitk:Xitk Combo FLOAT + ANYWHERE
Xitk:Xine Window FLOAT + ANYWHERE
XTerm:xterm XTERM_FONTADJ
The quirks themselves are described below:
FLOAT This window should not be tiled, but allowed to float freely.
TRANSSZ Adjusts size on transient windows that are too small using dialog_ratio (see
“CONFIGURATION FILES”).
ANYWHERE Allow window to position itself, uncentered.
XTERM_FONTADJ Adjust xterm fonts when resizing.
FULLSCREEN Remove border to allow window to use full region size.
FOCUSPREV On exit force focus on previously focused application not previous
application in the stack.
NOFOCUSONMAP Don't change focus to the window when it first appears on the screen. Has
no effect when focus_mode is set to follow.
FOCUSONMAP_SINGLE When the window first appears on the screen, change focus to the window if
there are no other windows on the workspace with the same WM_CLASS
class/instance value. Has no effect when focus_mode is set to follow.
OBEYAPPFOCUSREQ When an application requests focus on the window via a _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW
client message (source indication of 1), comply with the request. Note that
a source indication of 0 (unspecified) or 2 (pager) are always obeyed.
IGNOREPID Ignore the PID when determining the initial workspace for a new window.
Especially useful for terminal windows that share a process.
IGNORESPAWNWS Ignore the spawn workspace when determining the initial workspace for a new
window.
WS[n] Force a new window to appear on workspace n.
Custom quirks in the configuration file are specified as follows:
quirk[class[:instance[:name]]] = quirk [+ quirk ...]
class, instance (optional) and name (optional) are patterns used to determine which window(s) the
quirk(s) apply to and quirk is one of the quirks from the list above.
Note that patterns are interpreted as POSIX Extended Regular Expressions. Any ':', '[' or ']' must be
escaped with '\'. See regex(7) for more information on POSIX Extended Regular Expressions.
For example:
quirk[MPlayer] = FLOAT + FULLSCREEN + FOCUSPREV # Float all windows having a class of 'MPlayer'
quirk[.*] = FLOAT # Float all windows by default.
quirk[.*:.*:.*] = FLOAT # Same as above.
quirk[Firefox:Navigator] = FLOAT # Float all Firefox browser windows.
quirk[::Console] = FLOAT # Float windows with WM_CLASS not set and a window name of 'Console'.
quirk[\[0-9\].*:.*:\[\[\:alnum\:\]\]*] = FLOAT # Float windows with WM_CLASS class beginning with a number, any WM_CLASS instance and a _NET_WM_NAME/WM_NAME either blank or containing alphanumeric characters without spaces.
quirk[pcb:pcb] = NONE # remove existing quirk
You can obtain class, instance and name by running xprop(1) and then clicking on the desired window. In
the following example the main window of Firefox was clicked:
$ xprop | grep -E "^(WM_CLASS|_NET_WM_NAME|WM_NAME)"
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "Navigator", "Firefox"
WM_NAME(STRING) = "spectrwm - ConformalOpenSource"
_NET_WM_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = "spectrwm - ConformalOpenSource"
Note that xprop(1) displays WM_CLASS as:
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "<instance>", "<class>"
In the example above the quirk entry would be:
quirk[Firefox:Navigator] = FLOAT
spectrwm also automatically assigns quirks to windows based on the value of the window's
_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE property as follows:
_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DOCK FLOAT + ANYWHERE
_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_TOOLBAR FLOAT + ANYWHERE
_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_UTILITY FLOAT + ANYWHERE
_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_SPLASH FLOAT
_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DIALOG FLOAT
In all other cases, no automatic quirks are assigned to the window. Quirks specified in the
configuration file override the automatic quirks.
EWMH
spectrwm partially implements the Extended Window Manager Hints (EWMH) specification. This enables
controlling windows as well as spectrwm itself from external scripts and programs. This is achieved by
spectrwm responding to certain ClientMessage events. From the terminal these events can be conveniently
sent using tools such as wmctrl(1) and xdotool(1). For the actual format of these ClientMessage events,
see the EWMH specification.
The id of the currently focused window is stored in the _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW property of the root window.
This can be used for example to retrieve the title of the currently active window with xprop(1) and
grep(1):
$ WINDOWID=`xprop -root _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW | grep -o "0x.*"`
$ xprop -id $WINDOWID _NET_WM_NAME | grep -o "\".*\""
A window can be focused by sending a _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW client message to the root window. For example,
using wmctrl(1) to send the message (assuming 0x4a0000b is the id of the window to be focused):
$ wmctrl -i -a 0x4a0000b
Windows can be closed by sending a _NET_CLOSE_WINDOW client message to the root window. For example,
using wmctrl(1) to send the message (assuming 0x4a0000b is the id of the window to be closed):
$ wmctrl -i -c 0x4a0000b
Windows can be floated and un-floated by adding or removing the _NET_WM_STATE_ABOVE atom from the
_NET_WM_STATE property of the window. This can be achieved by sending a _NET_WM_STATE client message to
the root window. For example, the following toggles the floating state of a window using wmctrl(1) to
send the message (assuming 0x4a0000b is the id of the window to be floated or un-floated):
$ wmctrl -i -r 0x4a0000b -b toggle,_NET_WM_STATE_ABOVE
Windows can also be iconified and un-iconified by substituting _NET_WM_STATE_HIDDEN for
_NET_WM_STATE_ABOVE in the previous example:
$ wmctrl -i -r 0x4a0000b -b toggle,_NET_WM_STATE_HIDDEN
Floating windows can also be resized and moved by sending a _NET_MOVERESIZE_WINDOW client message to the
root window. For example, using wmctrl(1) to send the message (assuming 0x4a0000b is the id of the
window to be resize/moved):
$ wmctrl -i -r 0x4a0000b -e 0,100,50,640,480
This moves the window to (100,50) and resizes it to 640x480.
Any _NET_MOVERESIZE_WINDOW events received for stacked windows are ignored.
