Window manager based on simplicity and flexibility
Openbox is a highly configurable, next generation window manager with extensive standards support. The box visual style is well known for its minimalistic appearance. Openbox uses the box visual style, while providing a greater number of options for theme developers than previous box implementations.
It can also be used inside GNOME or KDE, or alongside an Emacs desktop environment.
