Does anyone know of any OS distro that's got CDE setup in a "curated"
package? I had someone ask/show-interest in using CDE for a student
computer lab. They were asking for a "timeless" interface, and I showed
them CDE.
What I'm thinking of when I say curated is *ideally* (not demanding just
wishing) something along the lines of:
* Already compiled
* Packaged
* No font mismatch issues
* Already setup for UTF-8 (if that's done already)
* File manager works
* Any background daemons or inetd stuff is integrated well
* Any menus or icons pre-loaded for other apps would be excellent
* Any kind of polish like new desktop patterns or backgrounds ++good
.... again just a wish list.
Ie.. something like Solaris used to ship with but these days I'd think we
could do even better. I haven't looked at things like Illumos or some
other distros that have CDE packaged. I just wonder who's got the best
integration and features for CDE currently and if anyone has gone "the
extra mile" to make it extra slick or functional in their OS/distro.
Also, I remember there was some CDE environment I used which had a
keystroke editor. Ie... it allowed me to change the setup for things like
virtual-desktop keystroke-switching without looking up or memorizing some
config file format somewhere to do it. Do any of you remember what that
might have been. I've used every OS known to $diety and man and I can't
remember now which one had that.
I'm also curious if anyone uses CDE on an RPI3 and what that's like
performance-wise compared with the LXDE that comes with Raspian etc..
Thanks,
Swift
