Opensnap brings the Aero Snap feature to Openbox.
If you didn't find any bugs, feel free to drop me a message at opensnap{ät]dumbinter[döt}net anyways. I'm happy for any feedback. But please report bugs on github if possible.
The goal was to make it work with every EWMH compliant window manager.
You'll need wmctrl.
On most debian systems you should be able to install it by:
sudo apt-get install wmctrl
If you want to build it make sure you have these as well:
sudo apt-get install build-essential libx11-dev libgtk-3-dev
If you want to install opensnap from source first make sure you have git installed. (Or fetch a zip file: https://github.com/lawl/opensnap/archive/master.zip)
Fetch via git:
git clone https://github.com/lawl/opensnap.git
Fetch via zip:
wget https://github.com/lawl/opensnap/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip
Make sure you have all prerequisits:
sudo apt-get install build-essential libx11-dev libgtk-3-dev wmctrl
And finally build and install it:
cd opensnap*
make
mkdir -p ~/.config/opensnap
cp sample_configs/* ~/.config/opensnap/
And now start opensnap by
bin/opensnap -d
This should tell you all you need to know:
opensnap -h
Copy the sample configs to ~/.config/opensnap/ (and edit them if needed).
They are mostly self explaining.
