Following the recent flurry of discussion I fetched the latest
version (using: bzr branch lp:ctwm) and on both my desktop PC
and laptop running F22, but with different things installed,
'make ctwm' seemed to work perfectly.

I've used f.restart to run the new version on the laptop, and everything seems
to work as expected (without much testing).

It occurs to me that in order to make the system easier for others to get into
some additions would be useful, in 'system' and 'user' sub-directories. For
Fedora XFCE (and other??) users, The 'system' dir could have a sample

    /usr/share/xsessions/ctwm.desktop

which in my case contains only the items suggested on this list a year or two
ago:

  [Desktop Entry]
  Name=Ctwm
  Comment=Log in using the ctwm window manager (without a session manager)
  Exec=$HOME/.xinitrc
  Icon=
  Type=Application

The user directory could have

-- one or more sample .xinitrc files,
-- a recommended sample dot-ctwmrc file
-- a small text file with links to ctwm sites that have more examples.
(I could find some though someone else probably already has
a good list.)

I don't know whether there should also be files to go somewhere in /etc/...
I don't find the need on my machines.
