I wouldn't call this "overkill". It's just another option, fvwm has loads of it, that's fvwm itself. But I suppose it's just about opinions. Cheers and thanks :) -- Jesús Guerrero <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

In the past I had enough personal and public talks with Alex to understand what a good man he is, full of patience and respect. I still can't think about him in the past sense. My condolences to everyone who was in close contact with this nice man. I may only hope I did something possibly small in the life to make Alex happier, and I am sorry if I did not do enough. Life is so unpredictable. Rest in peace. Regards, Mikhael.
