after coming from linux and using awesome window manager, i have been looking for a twm for windows.

i can't say i know how to install it though.

a readme file would be an improvement. ;)

You're absolutely right, a readme file would be a good idea, I'll include something in the next release :)

To use it you dont need to install anything, simply run the program and follow the^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Htry and figure out how to make things work ;)

Very nice! One of the many things I miss when using (rather, forced to use) windows is tiling window managers. Good thing someone's doing something about it.

Tiling window managers are such a great idea, but many people seem to think that you're just supposed to have badly organized windows cluttering up the screen. Maybe it's because they don't know any better. IMO, it would be really cool if tiling wm's became mainstream at some point, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. :)
