I have used JFS on Linux for several years, the experience was not
positive. Under conditions like 'disk full' or 'power failure' it tends

some time ago sfeed[1] was mentioned here on the list.
I tried it out. It's lean and has some very nice features, I like it.
There is one feature missing though that I personally consider

In any case, the underlying concepts of dwm do not match the concepts of

The 'left shift from one' notation of power of two integers is more
