But in some occasions it is not the case (ie. you have to telnet to 4-5 remote machines), which is painful with 9wm. This need for virtual screens motivated this about 50 lines hack. w9wm brings support for virtual screens (provided you use the second button, aka middle button to select one virtual screen) as well as for key bindings (to switch from one window to another). - George Reid greid@ukug.uk.freebsd.org >How-To-Repeat: n/a >Fix: # This is a shell archive.
