Using Openbox as my window manager lately has allowed for the sort of precise and reliable custom configuration that I’ve been missing after years languishing on Gnome/Unity. My latest triumph, with help from here, is a really quick and efficient poor-man’s method for tiling windows using the number pad keys. This configuration simply allows you to instantly resize the focused window to any half or quarter of the screen by holding the key and choosing a corner or side by pressing one of the number pad keys.
