Description Andrey Slusar 2004-05-24 00:00:46 UTC
	* Tiling workspaces with tabbed frames, as discussed above.
	* Designed to be primarily used from the keyboard.
	* Fully documented configuration and scripting interface on
	   top of the lightweight Lua extension language.
	* Modular design. The main binary implements only basic window
	   manager functionality. Actual window management policies are
	   implemented by dynamically loaded workspace and other modules.
	* The query module implements a line editor similar to mini buffers
	   in many text editors. It is used to implement many different queries
	   with tab-completion support: show manual page, run program, open SSH
	   session, view file, goto named client window or workspace, etc.
	* To run those few particularly badly behaving programs, Ion-2 also supports
	   conventional workspaces of the PWM flavour through the floatws module.
	   This module is also used to implement PWM2 on top of the Ion core library.
	* Other modules include the drawing engine, dock module for Window Maker
	   dockapp support, menu module and, of course, the tiled workspaces module.
	* Full screen client windows are seen as workspaces on their own. It is possible
	   to switch to a normal workspace while keeping several client windows in full
	   screen state and also switch clients that do not themselves support
	   full screen mode to this state.

How-To-Repeat: 	N/A

Hi there. 

Technically, this PR is a duplicate of ports/62486 by different 
submitter. I'm sorry we left it roting that long. Now I have 
a working port ready to commit, it will come to CVS in few days I hope. 
I used some parts of your PR in it and I will give credit 
in log message.
