Gargoyle
Gargoyle is an IF player that supports all the major interactive fiction formats. Most interactive fiction is distributed as portable game files. These portable game files come in many formats.

Gargoyle is free software released under the terms of the GNU General Public License.

Gworkspace
GWorkspace is the official GNUstep workspace and file manager. It is a clone of NeXT's workspace manager. It is ready for daily usage, and is available in English, French, German, Italian and Romanian. Besides its standard Contents Inspectors (App, Folder, Image, Sound, Pdf-Ps, Rtf, text, Plist, Strings and Inspector viewers), GWorkspace can dynamically load other modules which you can build separately. Simply put them in a place where GWorkspace looks for them, (ie ~/GNUstep/Library/GWorkspace). In the same way you can add other viewers besides the standard Browser, Icon and Small Icons viewers.
I3
i3 is a tiling X11 window manager that dynamically manages tiled, stacked, and tabbed window layouts. It primarily targets advanced users. Windows are managed manually and organized inside containers, which can be split vertically or horizontally, and optionally resized. i3 uses a plain-text configuration file, and can be extended and controlled from many programming languages.
I3-gaps
i3-gaps is a fork of i3wm, a tiling window manager for X11. It is kept up to date with upstream, adding a few additional features such as gaps between windows.

Icewm

Ion
Ion addresses the problem of navigating between windows by dividing the screen into frames that take up the whole screen and never overlap. Big displays have so much space that this should be convenient and smaller displays couldn't show more than one window at a time anyway. The frame layout is dynamic and different on each workspace. Given the tree instead of coordinate-based frame layout, moving between the frames can be conveniently done from the keyboard. As in PWM, the frames may have multiple clients attached. The author notes that programs with more than one window per document may become practically unusable under Ion. Terminal programs should work better than before, however. Other features include a general purpose line editor (called minibuffer in many text editors) and tab-completion in certain queries. Ion also has support for extensions (that are not wanted in the core source) as loadable modules.
Karmen
Karmen is an easy-to-use window manager for X. It is designed to just work. There is no configuration file, and no library dependencies other than Xlib. The input focus model is click-to-focus. It aims at ICCCM and EWMH compliance.
Larswm
'Larswm' is a modified version of the 9wm window manager that adds virtual desktops, automatic window tiling, and many other features designed to make it a highly efficient user environment. One of the design goals is that you should never have to manually shuffle windows around on the screen. Another is that it should use as little CPU time, RAM, and screen space for itself as possible.
Lifeograph
Lifeograph is an off-line and private journal and note taking application.
Lumina Desktop
Lumina Desktop, also called Lumina, is a desktop environment developed as a graphical interface for the TrueOS operating system. Lumina is designed to use as few dependencies as possible. It also has a plugin system so the interface can be arranged any way the user wants.
Lwm
'lwm' (Lightweight Window Manager) is a window manager for X that tries to keep out of your face. There are no icons, no button bars, no icon docks, no root menus, no nothing (other programs can provide those things). There is also no configurability, in the interest of remaining small.
