Some observations about view management in the computer medium.


X Window System [x.org]

A protocol for managing resources and for drawing views in the computer medium, typically drawn on an electronic display of content. Often results in an interactive decorated interface (IDI), misnomered as "graphical" (GUI).

StumpWM [stumpwm.github.io]

View manager following the X Window System protocol by means of CLX (Common Lisp X Window System) library. Uses SBCL (Steel Bank Common Lisp) [sbcl.org] interpreter, thereby also providing a scripting environment for dynamic reprogramming of the view management.

ChromiumOS [chromium.org]

An operating system based on Linux (UNIX mimic) with an HTM interpreter as the view management program. That means CSS aids in decorating the IDI (interactive decorated interface), and JavaScript provides a scripting environment for potential dynamic view management.

As of 2025-Sep-02, yet to personally do any scripting with it.
