Hello. This is my first post. I recently heard that KDE 4.10 is not going to have support for tiling anymore. This displeases me since I use tiling on a regular basis. I heard it may get replaced, but it doesn't sound like that is a very high priority for the dev team at this moment. How would I go about creating that script myself? What language do I need to use? Is there some documentation I can read to help me get started?
The old tiling support was lacking some features so i'm excited at the idea of creating something better. |

M. Gottschlag has been working on the tiling script, ideally contact kwin@kde.org - if he doesn't respond, i'll send you his mail address.

I tried to work on tiling recently, it's really fun stuff to do and shouldn't be very difficult to get to a usable level. The scripting API is well documented, and you can always ask in #kwin. I just stopped doing it again since I lack the time to finish (well, "finish", what I had way very prototypy) and especially maintain it. But it should be a fun project and doesn't really need any in-depth knowledge of... anything either.
</motivation for people to implemen titling support>
I'm working on the KDevelop IDE.
