Scwm is the Scheme Constraints/Configurable Window Manager. It is a window manager with a powerful dynamic configuration language based on Guile Scheme. Scwm has many, many advanced features, often implemented in the configuration language itself.

This was very fun for [...]

Carneades is an argument mapping application, with a graphical user interface, and a software library for building applications supporting various argumentation tasks.
