* Features of Qtile
- Simple, small and extensible. It's easy to write your own layouts, widgets and commands.
- Configured in Python.
- Command shell that allows all aspects of Qtile to be managed and inspected.
- Complete remote scriptability - write scripts to set up workspaces, manipulate windows, update status bar widgets and more.
- Qtile's remote scriptability makes it one of the most thoroughly unit-tested window managers around.

* Settings For Some Layouts
Settings that I use in most layouts, so I'm defining them one time here.

* Layouts
The layouts that I use, plus several that I don't use. Uncomment the layouts you want; comment out the ones that you don't want to use.

#+BEGIN_SRC python

Defining some colors for use in our panel.

          ["#e1acff", "#e1acff"]] # window name

* Prompt
Settings for the qtile run prompt, even though I don't actually use this. I prefer to use dmenu instead.

#+BEGIN_SRC python
prompt = "{0}@{1}: ".format(os.environ["USER"], socket.gethostname())

Defining a few default widget key values.
