Oh and one other thing. Without a WM the placement and size of any
window is dependant on system or program defaults. With evelwm I can
start a window in the place and size I want for that moment. Even
different instances of the same program, by giving it a different
name. Which among others is handy to correct the overscan.

This is my .xinitrc

/usr/bin/xset s noblank
