Hey, you old unix hacks are still admitting that you use a window manager. :-) I looked at FVWM2 on their web site - some interesting screen shots - given the variance in looks, I assume it is highly customizable (especially by unix hacks that know what they are doing). I've been playing with a Xastir virtual machine using AntiX 7.2, which by default uses Fluxbox as the WM. The more I use it, the more I like it - definitely a far cry from KDE. _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list Xastir@xastir.org http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
