Orion is a window manager for the X11 windowing system. It is written in Scheme and accesses Xlib via the scx library for scsh. It is in fact a family of window managers that can be nested. This enables great flexibility and efficient handling of X11 applications. It currently comes with four child window managers: a conventional moving window manager, a window manager for stacking windows in a frame, a window manager for splitting windows horizontally, and vertically and a work space manager. It also supports saving the window manager layout and programmatic configuration.
