Hi there; I am enthusiastically using e16 as my window manager for almost 2 decades now. I am absolutely happy with it for its minimalism, simplicity, speed, wide and easy configurability and simple text-based configuration files. For me, it is still by far the best window manager and there is no other manager, which I like comparably.
Thank you very much for keeping it up! There is only one single wish, which I have since the beginning, which would be, to have one single large background-Image to span over the whole "virtual desktop" of, say, 4x4 screens size. (besides from being beautiful, this would help orientation on the "virtual desktop".) In the optimal case, it would be possible to move the screen-sized "screen-viewport" over the 4x4-"virtual desktop" in steps smaller than one screen. (Sometimes, I have to work with windows which are larger than one screen, and span a larger area on the "virtual desktop". This is already perfectly possible in e16.) What parts of the code would need to be changed to implement either of these two wish-parts, and will this be a very complex effort? If the concept was not originally aimed for this, would it be possible to adapt it? On the long run, I would be willing to dig into it and implement this (because I see myself using this wonderful WM still for a long time), but some starting-information, which are the key-funktions which need to be changend for this, would be very helpful. Or are these features completely incompatible with the way, the "virtual screen" is implemented, and it is just not by any tricks possible without rewriting nearly everything? Cheers and many thanks!
