Divvy - about windows again or alternative Cinsh

In March of this year, we have already touched on issues windowing in Mac OS, and then was found a convenient solution in the role which made Cinsh program with its overview you can find at following link. However, nothing stands still, we recently got to hand an alternative solution - the windowing manager divvy.
Despite the fact that both programs (Cinsh and divvy) perform similar tasks, allowing you to set a specific size of any window on your desktop, their approach to this operation is significantly different. Let me remind you Cinsh determines the window size on their own, the user can only drag the object to the edge of the desktop and continue your work.
In the case of Divvy, programmers decided to entrust the user several more.
The basic tool used Divvy small transparent field consisting of 6x6 cells in an amount (by pressing the ⌘ their number increases to 12x12), appearing as a result of activation of the program by means of hot keys or through the pretty icon located in the menu bar. By means of this small Divvy menu controls the active window allows you to specify its position and size in proportion to the marked cells.
In Divvy commonly used keyboard shortcuts, it is treated like a call to the application, and to manage windows. Examples of such shortcuts creates his own hands: "1" - located on the left window and occupies 66% of the working space, "2" - window located on the right and occupies 34% of the desktop, "3" - the window occupies the entire workspace (switcher option beee!) "4" - four windows distributed evenly. All this is configurable in just a few clicks, taking full account of your preference through a very user-friendly interface. Submit a fully Divvy capabilities allow very sensible video (see. below) from the developers of the program, which are discussed in detail all available manipulations.
Working with multiple displays somewhat disappointing. It remains the impression that the developers did not take into account such a configuration at all, hence the appearance of Divvy menu on each monitor and the lack of ability to limit the workspace major screen.
Divvy very handy tool, the possibility of which can easily fit into daily operations. It remains only to choose a supporter of the camp you must be a: divvy please admirers shortcuts optimizers everything. Cinsh leave with you lovers of grand gestures with the mouse, those who like drag & drop and beautiful animation work with windows.
