Patch rio and live free!

Usage

Here we have a bumbly old untiled rio session

Zip, Bang, Kapow! With the use of Rio's nifty right-click menu or the key combination Shift-J (You can easily modify this if your setup requires the use of the capital letter J)

With some hacking, you can have fibonacci tiling!

Theres a few other choice keyboard hooks written directly into Rio source, such as moving the active window with CTRL-Shift-J and CTRL-Shift-K.

Disclaimer

This tiling window manager is not intended to be used seriously and in reality is a loose collection of hacks
