+shod is a mouse-based X11 window manager that can tile and tab windows
+inside floating containers. To tile windows, drag-and-drop the titlebar
+of one window into the border of the other with the right mouse button.
+The entire grid of tiles is called a "container", and can float around
+on the screen.

+shod works via mouse, possibly with a given modifier (Alt by default),
+and by responding to client messages sent by the shodc utility (shod's
+remote controller). With the exception of the alt-tab combination for
+cycling windows, shod does no keybinding by itself and relies on other
+applications (such as sxhkd) for that.
+
+shod has no default bar. However shod has a dock where dockapps (small
+windows commonly used on other window managers like Window Maker) can
+be on. The dock does not appear unless a dockapp is spawned.
+
+shod can be customized by setting X resources.
shod was inspired by the following programs and window managers. I'd
like to thank their authors for their work that helped me developing
