Current hg tip contains a reworked dotile() - I think I'll
simplify some parts of it, but it should work in all scenarios.
config.h contains two new options:
#define STACKPOS StackRight /* StackLeft */
#define VERTICALSTACK True /* False == horizontal stack */
The stackpos is for the scenario in dualhead setups I described
in a different mail.
There are two new shortcuts as well:
Mod1-b toggles between stack position (wether bottom or at the side)
Mod1-d toggles the direction the stacked clients are arranged.
This results in following scenarios (I didn't took a shot of the
scenario when compiling dwm with StackLeft, but it looks the
same in a mirrored case).
