2bwm
==========
A fast floating WM, with the particularity of having 2 borders, written over the XCB library and derived from mcwm written by Michael Cardell.<br>
In 2bWM everything is accessible from the keyboard but a pointing device can be used for move, resize and raise/lower.<br>
The name has recently changed from mcwm-beast to 2bwm<br>

Features:
=========
You can check what mcwm already had here: <br>

When talking in size proportion, 2bwm binary is 28KB, when dwm bin is 33KB, dvtm 37KB, and i3 343KB.

Notice that all those WM are really small and that size doesn't really matter in the end.
Still, I'll try to mess with it a little to make it smaller.

=======
- Center, put the window to the center of the screen with mod+g (patched -- now center well with 2 monitors)
