I used it a few years ago...and you're correct. It takes a lot of work to

Personally, I think it's great that people like BB enough to start making
spin-off WM's. Another interesting article would take a look at BB and its
progeny - you could say that it's possible to both keep the minimalist look

Does it make a difference if you start bbkeys before blackbox?

Oh, yeah...no more twm.
Since I installed Cygwin XF86 from binaries, though, it couldn't find libX.
I ended up just downloading and building X on my Windows box to get all the

Had the same problems as Scott, did a similar hack.

really like the flexibility of bbkeys; making the WM catch keys removes some
