Since everyone seems to be pushing their favourite window manager at the
moment I better put in a word for ratpoison. If you like screen(1) and hate
mice (mouses?) then check out rat poison. Everything is controlled by
key strokes which IMO is a good thing ;)
http://ratpoison.sourceforge.net/
The other nice thing is that it is quick and is only 37k.
