Tiling window manager performs tiling using the FvwmRearrange command. It arranges windows on the screen into non-overlapping frames, unlike the more common method of coordinate-based stacking of overlapping windows that aims to fully replicate the desktop metaphor. This is how NsCDE arranges windows vertically and horizontally.
FvwmRearrange -tile $0 -r -mn 3 -maximize 0 0 $[wa.width]p $[wa.height]p #vertical FvwmRearrange -tile $0 -r -mn 2 -maximize 0 0 $[wa.width]p $[wa.height]p #horizontal
This code resets the windows to their initial position and size:
DestroyFunc DeTile AddToFunc DeTile + I All (CurrentPage, !Iconic, CirculateHit, !Sticky) Maximize Off + I WindowId $0 WarpToWindow 50 50
