Description:
The 'default' way to switch windows in Ratpoison is to press C-t-w to get the
window list, find the number of the window you want to switch to (let's say
it's 2), and press C-t-2 to switch. rpbar is a simple taskbar that gives a
permanent display of the windows in the current group in order to make the
first C-t-w unnecesary. As a concession to The Rat, clicking on a window title
will select that window. This is useful for one-handed window selection.

The main inspiration is the simple task bars you get in other minimalistic
window managers such as Awesome or wmii. rpbar's appearance is modeled on these
task bars.

rpbar requires that you adjust your .ratpoisonrc; instructions are available in
the README.md provided with this package.

I no longer have an interest in maintaining this package. Someone may use this specfile as a starting point if they wish to package rpbar.
