[Pkg-lxde-maintainers] Bug#962231: openbox-lxde-session: missing default key binding in order to snap windows to screen halves like tiling

[Jérôme Bouat]

Package: openbox-lxde-session
Version: 0.99.2-3
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,


   * What led up to the situation?

I know that openbox is a stacking window manager. However, a simple tip make it quite like a tiling window manager.


   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

It is painfull to share the screen between 2 windows.


   * What outcome did you expect instead?

I defined key bindind into my ~/.config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml file according to the below link :

This could come as a default binding with this package.
