herbstluftwm (abbreviated ashlwm, from German : herbstluft"autumn air" [3] ) is a manual tiling window manager for X11 display manager on Linux operating system and its derivatives. It uses Xlib and GLib [4] system libraries, and is designed in a similar fashion to other minimalistic tiling window managers such as i3 and Musca intended to be configured manually by the user through configuration files using imperative directives. [5] hlwm supports workspaces in which individual windows can reside. It also supports multiple displays or computer monitors. It was first released in 2011 and is now in its 0.7 version as of the latest 2016 release being maintained on GitHub.

Reddit online news aggregator

Reddit is an American social news aggregation, web content rating, and discussion website. Registered members submit content to the site such as links, text posts, and images, which are then voted up or down by other members. Posts are organized by subject into user-created boards called "subreddits", which cover a variety of topics including news, science, movies, video games, music, books, fitness, food, and image-sharing. Submissions with more up-votes appear towards the top of their subreddit and, if they receive enough votes, ultimately on the site's front page. Despite strict rules prohibiting harassment, Reddit's administrators spend considerable resources on moderating the site.
