The iTerm2 beta features the borderless windows. You can grab a nightly build from https://www.iterm2.com/downloads.html . The settings is Preferences -> Profiles -> Window and then select "No Title Bar" in the drop-down for style.
I really wish we could disable all the title bars.

Disclaimer: I run OS X at work and Linux on all of my personal machines. > The reasonable solution is to use one of the many native tiling applications for OSX. As an i3 user (and former wmii user, and former xmonad user), I find it really frustrating to use tiling window management that doesn't support focus-follows-mouse. This rules out things like Spectacle, Divvy, etc. At a second level, I find that all of OS X's…
Sadly all the tiling window managers i've tried suck on multi monitors though. When i switched to 3 monitors i gave up on tiling wm (for once with 3 monitors i had A LOT more space).
How on earth do you throw windows from the leftmost monitor to the rightmost easily?!

Off-topic, why did you switch from xmonad to i3?
Not a deal breaker but Xmonad brings a large dependency (1GB+ is the price of Haskell) where most TWMs on Linux are in comparison laughably lightweight and blazing fast. For me i3 strikes the sweetspot of dead simple config, incredible feature set, and performance. This after coming from Awesome WM where I found myself spending way too much time tweaking Lua script to get things pixel perfect, which you basically get…
Since xmonad is a Haskell library, you need the compiler. There's a reason why ghc is so big compared to other compilers, but just because it is a big dependency, it doesn't make xmonad any less lightweight

This gives the false impression that xmonad is not as fast as other twms. Xmonad is very lightweight, the package is below 500kb, which is below i3 and awesome. It has a very minimal and clean interface. The configuration file IS the twm (similar to DWM) xmonad is just a library. You write your WM which might be a turnoff for users that don't want to spend the time doing so. Since xmonad is a Haskell library, you nee…
