Used to use Ratpoison. Then I switched to Stumpwm because it's better. I'd like to use a tiling WM again, but I haven't yet managed to find any tiling windows.

I use ratpoison on my Inspiron Mini 1012 because the touchpad is useless and the screen is small enough without window decorations or panels. ratpoison being very lightweight is a bonus.

Xmonad cause I actually like Haskell and configuring Xmonad in Haskell.

XMonad.
I use one app per workspace because floating windows get in the way and piss me off when I'm trying to focus on something. Switching through apps without using the mouse saves time and keeps me in the zone.
I use my mouse exclusively for casual web browsing. Vimperator for everything work related, like references.

If you run it full screen, why do you use Xmonad? You prefer to hack your WM in Haskell?

It's not about dicking around with Haskell but using a tiling manager which doesn't waste screen real estate.
I usually work with one fullscreen Vim session and a bunch of terminals. Managing that with a standard WM is awkward and wastes time. With a tiling manager I just spawn a terminal session and get to work.

I mean, why Xmonad over StumpWM or Ratpoison? Those are naturally full-screen.

I'll check it out when I have some time to kill.
For now I'm comfortable with my XMonad setup.

I'm a DWM guy. It's arguably the fastest and lightest tiling window manager out there. The downside is that it's a pain to customize to your liking (i.e. you need to modify & rebuild the source yourself). Not a problem for me though, since I like the defaults well enough.
