I use AwesomeWM too, but Lua is fucking shit and my configuration file is a mess. I also wish it were a bit more responsive, since it's a fucking tiling window manager after all.

I use scrotwm because other window managers have the crippling weakness of not being written in C.
I use Openbox, because it's the default on Raspbian.
I'm considering switching to i3, but probably won't have sufficient motivation until I get my Rasberry Pi into a more permanent setup than the current ``borrow the HDMI and ethernet cables from the Xbox when I want to use it'' one.

while window manager itself is awesome it's standart library is really really awful
if you want to look at at least half decent lua code, take a peek inside prosody jabber server.
Haskell XNomads, it is extremely fast and reliable, as reliable or more reliable than Windows and Mac OS X, because it never crashed in all those years and versions. Very comfortable on both single-monitor setup (my cheapo ``netbook''), two-monitor setup (home desktop), three-monitor setup (work desktop).
The only drawback is that it, like all other WMs minus Openbox, can be slow to respond during heavy IO and processor load, especially in tabbed layouts. Openbox is the only WM out of dozens I've tried that responds immediately no matter the load.

personally i3, but I want to make scwm a dynamic one like i3 and awesomewm. My workplace is the scum, so I only have awesomewm there.
scrotwm(they renamed it to spectrwm now) on FreeBSD
I use scrotwm because it's fast, easily modifiable because it's written in good ol' C. And conf file is easy (you don't need to know Haskell like with xmonad)
VTWM, fast and ``hackeable'' as hell and it also have some tiling functionality

Window Managers are for faggots. Discuss shells.
I use ZSH because it's the only one that doesn't suck.
>>27 zsh is utter shite for HN/Reddit/Arch Linux/OSX faggots who show off their ``dotfiles'' and ``cool terminal color scheme'' at Github. Use tcsh like real men do.
I use FVWM, mostly because I am used to it and have no particular reason to change. I have tried StumpWM once and it was quite nice. I don't know if it's still maintained.

I fetch web pages from other sites by sending mail to a program (see git://git.gnu.org/womb/hacks.git) that fetches them, much like wget, and then mails them back to me.
I use windows 8 you fucking faggot geeks. Youd better find a woman and stop jacking off to some retarded geeky window managers. Get a superior OS, get W8, faggots.
