@technomancy ohhhh i see what you mean
well, in my case, yes i do use a tiling wm. but if i went single-screen let's pretend that I could setup keybindings or tags or something to let me manage the stuff on the right separately from the stuff on the left
i'm currently more interested in "gosh i wish i hadn't got this wide hidef monitor because even thought the text is crisp i can't make my editor tall enough for these long ass functions i have to deal with"
