Dependencies
------------
 
Qtile requires a recent version of Python Xlib:
 
http://python-xlib.sourceforge.net/
 
 
Installation
------------
 
1 - Install the Qtile library and executables:
 
        python setup.py install
 
2 - Create a Qtile configuration directory and create a configuration file. It
    is probably easiest to start with one of the configuration files in th
    examples/config directory of the Qtile distribution:
 
        mkdir ~/.qtile
 
        cp examples/config/cortesi-config.py ~/.qtile/config.py
 
3 - Make Qtile run. On my system, this meant creating an .xsession file
    containing the following:
 
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/qtile
