AfterStep: Meaning (information, definition, explanation, facts)

AfterStep is a window manager for the X Window System. AfterStep originally was a variant of FVWM modified to resemble NeXTSTEP, but as developers (who included Alfredo Kojima and Guylhem Aznar), this window manager further diverged from its FVWM roots.

It currently includes several modules including a pager, WinList (which helps to manage windowed applications, and a docking feature called the Wharf (which manages applets. AfterStep also supports virtual screens, and relies on a set of text-based configuration files for customizing its appearance.

For the upcoming release 2.0, currently in development, its current maintainer Sasha Vasko has rewritten AfterStep to use the functionality of the new asimagelib graphics libraries.
