It is indeed!



Does it only work for your terminal windows or can you tile any window? Any details on how you set it up, I can't seem to find a lot of info about it.


You won't be able to use xmonad to manage normal OS X apps. X11 will just be another OS X application sitting in your dock that you can switch to. However, it is pretty easy to install a decent set of X11 apps. If you have MacPorts installed you can install the packages firefox-x11, rxvt-unicode, unclutter, and 'vim +gtk2' (the +gtk2 variant for PRIMARY/CLIPBOARD support) to get started.

Only X/console apps. I primarily use it for vim + zsh.

The easiest way to set it up is to download the Haskell Platform, then cabal install xmonad, and get urxvt through homebrew.

I have my dotfiles up if you want to have a look: github.com/cloudhead/dotfiles.git
