How to use it

  1. Place the pointer over your browser, press Alt+W, release the entry keys, then press A for Quick.
  2. Press H to place the browser on the left half.
  3. Type your editor's window number, then press L to place it on the right half.
  4. Press Q to return to Window, then Q again to start working.

Quick adjusts each axis independently. The first direction starts with the configured proportion nearest half a screen; repeating the direction shrinks it, while the opposite direction expands it. For example, press K after choosing the left half to place the window in the upper-left area. Default proportions are 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, plus an automatically included full-screen proportion. Press Z to undo.
