The first two lines allow you to switch between splits much more smoothly — just press to open and maximize the split below the current one and to open and maximize the split above the current one. I chose these mappings because they correspond to vi’s default up and down keys, you might want to use different key combinations if you’ve ever used an editor that had hotkeys for moving from one open file to another.
The last line allows splits to reduce their size to a single line (which includes the filename and position); this saves a lot of space when you have many splits open. By default, vim forces splits to include an additional line that contains the line of text the cursor was on in that file.
This gives you some sort of stacking functionality like in wmii
for a while i was trying to get the latest snapshot compiled on an old linux box. (running dapper).
while running make, i got the following error:
MAKE all cmd/
CC cmd/util.o
cc: '-b' must come at the start of the command line
make[1]: *** [util.o] Error 1
make: *** [dall] Error 2
but i couldn’t find the -b option anywhere grepping through the (make)files:
$ grep -w -r -- -b *
rc/sh.wmii: dmenu -b -fn $WMII_FONT
rc/sh.wmii: os -b -d ${hostenv HOME} $* &eventuall it turned to be a very funky thing. namely, an older version of mercurial!
the command to generate the snapshot version was wonky, and thus returned the help output of hg, giving a -b option to the compiler….
after this was fixed, i got the following error:
CC cmd/menu/menu.o
cmd/menu/menu.c:228: error: 'XK_KP_Space' undeclared
cmd/menu/menu.c:228: error: 'XK_KP_Equal' undeclared
cmd/menu/menu.c:229: error: 'XK_KP_Enter' undeclared
cmd/menu/menu.c:230: error: 'XK_Return' undeclared
which lookes like missing a X11 include, and yes the following fixes that:
happy wmii-3.6′ing!

it seems that when I connect to my nx server instance, that from the mac you need a different setting then on linux.
on the mac, you need to select “new floating layer”, where as on linux this isn’t an issue.
