I think it was one of the first (freeware) window managers that offered a Motif-style look (which was much less boring than the plain old twm), back in the days of 386BSD and `ref.tfs.com'. Anyway, it was not only dog-slow then on my old 386SX-16, but also buggy enough so i have abandoned it in favor of the upcoming fvwm some day. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
