Geez this thing is big and bulky too (took 20-30 megs on my system!). So for now I erased it. When I'm ready to start doing some programming or need a really powerful editor I will re-install it. For now, I'm watching my disk space. I more need a good POP Email client than a text editor. BTW, anyone who wants a copy of my .fvwm2rc file to see my setup so far, let me know - I'd have to FTP it to you since I'm not doing Email from BSD yet (haven't found a client). You'd need a copy of asclock, since this is one of the things I load at startup (nicest X clock I've seen for BSD so far). P.S.. 'fave' is slang for 'favorite', so I was saying I found my favorite window manager. P.P.S... have you used fvwm2 and found any way to get the 'backer' module to work correctly??
