PWM is a rather lightweight window manager. It has the unique feature that multiple client windows can be attached to the same frame. This feature helps keep windows, especially the numerous xterms, organized. Being a lightweight window manager with emphasis on usability, PWM does not have all the features that one might expect from a window manager. Those features are simply unnecessary. PWM does not provide pixmapped themes or other bloated eye candies but has a clean and simple look inspired by BeOS and Motif. There are no icons and frames cannot be iconified, only "shaded". Only one pointer focus mode is supported: sloppy. PWM does not even have titlebar buttons and may not be the easiest window manager to get into; most good things are not. PWM has workspaces, menus and Window Maker dockapp support. It has pretty good keyboard support and almost all of the functionality is configurable.

Binary packages can be installed with the high-level tool pkgin (which can be installed with pkg_add) or pkg_add(1) (installed by default). The NetBSD packages collection is also designed to permit easy installation from source.
The pkg_admin audit command locates any installed package which has been mentioned in security advisories as having vulnerabilities.
Please note the vulnerabilities database might not be fully accurate, and not every bug is exploitable with every configuration.
Problem reports, updates or suggestions for this package should be reported with send-pr.
