# qtile
> A full-featured, hackable tiling window manager written and configured in Python.
> More information: <https://docs.qtile.org/en/latest/manual/commands/shell/index.html>.
- Start the window manager, if it is not running already (should ideally be run from `.xsession` or similar):
`qtile start`
- Check the configuration file for any compilation errors (default location is `~/.config/qtile/config.py`):
`qtile check`
- Show current resource usage information:
`qtile top --force`
- Open the program `xterm` as a floating window on the group named `test-group`:
`qtile run-cmd --group {{test-group}} --float {{xterm}}`
- Restart the window manager:
`qtile cmd-obj --object cmd --function restart`
