Requirements

Requirements and QT5 framework installed with qmake and development headers, for test Xephyr are good choice:

Build

Build using qt4

export QT_SELECT=4
qmake -makefile
make
make install

Build using qt5

export QT_SELECT=5
qmake -makefile
make
make install

Install to system

Testing without exit session

Firs get a working display test with Xephyr, in a console shell lauch:

$ Xephyr :1 -ac -screen 900x700 &

Then due eggwm lacks of replace-ment function lauch to that display:

$ eggwm -display :1

Now lauch applications that can be specified what display to use, as Xterm, and from that lauch other apps:

$ xterm -display :1

Status:

Working but take in consideration its a basic window manager, rest of implementation must be over a taskbar/panel,
