## NAME

vdesk - virtual desktops for any window manager

## DESCRIPTION

**vdesk** provides virtual desktops portably; it´s mainly useful for  lightweight window managers that do not provide the functionality natively.

This manual page was written for the **Debian** distribution because  the original program does not have a manual page.
