+mcwm is a minimalist window manager for the X Window System written
+directly on top of the X protocol C-language Binding, XCB. It is a
+traditional floating window manager with no fancy smarts like those in
+modern tiling window managers.
+
+In mcwm all functions are available from the keyboard but a pointing
+device can be used for move, resize and raise/lower.
+
+Features:
+
+ * Small.
+ * Fast.
+ * No icons. (But it can hide windows completely.)
+ * Sloppy focus.
+ * Toggling vertical and full screen maximizing.
+ * Virtual screens/workspaces.
+ * Crash proof window placement.
+ * Only users can move and resize windows.
+ * Multihead support.
+ * Good keyboard control.
+ * No garish decorations (only 1 pixel border by default).
+ * Written in straight C (C99).
+ * Written using only XCB.
+ * Few dependencies.
