Beryl is out of This World – Window Management Taken to the Next Level
I had no idea how cool an interface could be. I was going to install AfterStep but I kept seeing people talk about Beryl. So what do I do? TRY IT.
Beryl has features such as hotkeys and and desktop switching that go much further than anything else I’ve used. On top of that, the window and desktop switching looks amazing… Desktops on a 3D cube and a killer alt-tab; AWESOME.
Pretty window animations and all sorts of crazy effects such as watter ripples when you drag and release a window or variable transparency are a few of the cool extras that some people will want to enable.
I turned off most of the effects because I’m into lite and minimal, but I couldn’t help keeping the 3D desktop switching.
I read a comment somewhere that said something like “Apple and MS give you windows but Linux gives you the whole house.” true true
