swm (the Solbourne window manager) is an
X Window System window manager developed by Tom LaStrange at
Solbourne Computer in 1990. The most important innovation of swm was the introduction of the
virtual desktop. It also introduced a primitive form of session management (restoring programs in use at the time of shutdown) to X.
