                         Orion window manager
                         ====================

Orion is a window manager for the X11 windowing system. Orion is
written in Scheme and accesses Xlib via the scx library for scsh.
Orion is in fact a family of window managers which can be nested. This
enables great flexibility and efficient handling of X11
applications. Orion currently comes with four child window managers:

* a conventional moving window manager 
* a window manager for stacking windows in a frame
* a window manager for splitting windows horizontally and vertically
* a work space manager

Orion also supports saving the window manager layout and programmatic
configuration.

See the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

The directory doc/ contains a small manual which lists the standard key
bindings and a description of Orion's configuration files.
