Perfect for a PVR... no decorations/titlebars, etc. Everything is full-screen, and you can pull up a terminal with a keystroke that mimics the 'screen' terminal program.Cory, do you have to tweak any rc files or with ratpoison? I spent a couple of hours last night attempting to tweak .twmrc and .fvwmrc to get twm or fvwm2 working. Both times there was one or two problems that I could not get around. For example, with twm, attempting to schedule a recording by using the program schedule would bring the program schedule up in the background.
The only ratpoison setting I tried to mess with was to fix the overscan my tvout stuff does. With ratpoison, whatever window is active, it is made fullscreen. I also believe that if a new window is drawn, it becomes active and is thus fullscreen. Toggling from one to the other requires a "screen-like" keystroke... 'Ctrl-t, 0' for the 0th window, etc. Pulling up an xterm is 'Ctrl-t, n' for a New window.
Hope that helps.... all I can suggest is to give it a try. It's about as lightweight as a window manager can be.
