I don't plan any specific multihead support. If you have a dual head setup (like me at university), I recommend compiling dwm for the left and right screen independently. The left screen dwm should have set #define STACKPOS StackLeft in config.h, and the right dwm should have set #define STACKPOS StackRight in config.h This way I can run DISPLAY=:0.0 dwm.left & DISPLAY=:0.1 dwm.right in my .xinitrc, and I get following setup: SMMM MMMS SMMM MMMS with indicating (M)aster area and (S)tacking area Regards, -- Anselm R.
