I used to use ShiftIt all the time, but actually eventually moved to Slate. I wrote Amethyst because I got tired of manually moving windows, even if by keyboard shortcut, and got spoiled by xmonad when I was running a linux machine.

Just wanted to pop in and say thanks for this project. I'm a longtime user of awesomewm and love having my windows automatically laid out. Using ShiftIt or Slate just isn't the same - I very rarely care to micromanage sizes and layouts.

Any plans to designate "always floating" apps like in awesomewm?
