 Ion (X window manager) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Unix computing, Ion is a tiling and tabbing window manager for the X Window System.
Since the first release of Ion in the summer 2000, similar alternative window management ideas have begun to show in other new window managers: LarsWM, WMI, and TrsWM.
It is designed such that it is possible to manage windows using only a keyboard, without needing a mouse.

 Xenotrout's Window Manager
Though XenoWM can be used as a traditional floating window manager, it's actually a quick and easy dynamic tiling system.
Windows can also be managed using the pointer alone, by dragging the frame with the left button to move or the right button to resize.
Snap the window to the nearest screen or window edge on the left by pressing F. Expand the window to the nearest vertical edges by pressing E. Halve the window vertically by pressing s.

 SQUAREWITHIN: October 2003 Archives
On this laptop, all windows are maximized by default as tiling is out of the question due to space contraints and the lack of a good way of memorizing different layouts of windows.
Of course, this assumption is based on the default Windows install that doesn't exhibit behavor similar to x-mouse, where whatever window the mouse is over has focus regardless of whether it is in the foreground or not.
Currently, all notification options are turned off, so neither have the nasty Windows XP ability to pop up on their own and steal focus from what I am currently working on.

 freshmeat.net: Project details for Ion
Ion is a tiling (no overlapping windows) window manager that also has PWM-style tabbed frames which can contain multiple client windows.
Ion was designed primarily as an efficient and unobtrusive window manager for users who prefer the keyboard.
It's not perfect, but it's the only way I see to make a sticky-windows concept that is consistent with the look-and-feel of Ion.

 Cultured Perl: Fun with the Ion window manager
Ion 1 may not have been the first to use tiling workspaces (the idea is hardly new), but it certainly did a good job of it, thanks to tabbing.
Ion 1 had no floating (overlapping windows) workspaces, and few features.
I used Enlightenment before Ion and I must confess that the lack of themes made Ion very unappealing at first, but in the end Ion let me concentrate on what was inside the windows, not their decorations.
