Things to know
All the window managers should have either bound keys or right-click root-window menus. The important bound keys:
Alt-Shift-Enter: start a terminal
Alt-Shift-Q: exit the window manager
Alt+F3: start dmenu
There are other bound keys -- type "cat ~/.xbindkeysrc" in a terminal to see the definitions for them. If you can't get a root menu and Alt-Shift-Enter doesn't work, please report this in the Gangbang release topic.
Before you ask a question
1. RTFM (read the f'in manpage). Type "man <windowmanager>" in a terminal (replace <windowmanager> with the name of the WM you are using). Or use Alt-F7 to start "bbqwm" (or type "bbqwm" in a terminal.)
2. RTFW (read the f'in wiki). Most of the window managers have entries in the wiki. Start here.
If you have RTFM and RTFW and still have questions, ask here.
