@Temetka: my experience is that an interesting tiler will raise ones general stacking awareness/knowhow/conceptuality as well.

^ This. You should (in my opinion) at least give it a try for a few hours! It might open your eyes and enhance your stacking workflow
If you can't sit by a cozy fire with your code in hand enjoying its simplicity and clarity, it needs more work. --Carlos Torres

^ It just took a few minutes on me to figure out that I lost much of my time with stack, just a few minutes may be sufficient

I like a lot these settings on spectrwm.conf, perhaps they're available on other WM.
#startup apps autorun
autorun = ws[1]:rxvt -e alsamixer
autorun = ws[1]:rxvt -e top
autorun = ws[2]:spacefm
autorun = ws[3]:iceweasel
#customize workspace layout on start
layout = ws[1]:0:1:0:0:horizontal
layout = ws[2]:0:0:0:0:vertical
#set workspace names on start
name = ws[1]:Term
name = ws[2]:SpaceFM
name = ws[3]:Iceweasel
Every time that i auto startx, term/apps launch itself on relevant workspaces. How awesome, clean 'n simple
Another +1 for tiling/spectrwm

In Windows 7 I have a handy shortcut, super key plus left or right arrow, to quickly fill half the screen with a window. It's a nice tiling-like feature. Can this be implemented in Openbox? I know the shortcut for resizing with snapping, but it's cumbersome in comparison to the Windows feature I describe. It doesn't seem I should have to go to a tiling WM for this simple feature.

This is already part of openbox. I believe it's part of the default configuration in Crunchbang/BunsenLabs. I also think it is already set-up to super+left/right as well... It is on my set-ups anyway.
The relevant bit of rc.xml: Should go in the <keyboard></keyboard> section.

It's been there for years!

How so? I too use Super+L, Super+R, Super+UpArrow, Super+DownArrow to snap half screen to the left, right, up, or down, respectively.
