I built ctwm 4.

ctwm --info returns the correct info.
I'm rather curious as to why twm is mentioned? True, it's reflective of
ctwm's roots, but why in the version string? Are end users expected to be
testing for twm compliance or some such thing? It just seems a little
dated to me.

I was giving the man page a very quick once over and I noticed quite a
few occurrences of the string "%%NEXT%%". I'm fairly certain that version
related text was intended in these places.

I started ctwm with the default config. When I mouse over the menu buttons
they go blank. The menu items are also off on the y axis (which is the
x and which is the y is implementation defined :) as is the cool 3D effect
which does not have any text at all on it.

If you need a picture just scream on the internet. If you make a sound
I'll send one :) [1]

Let's see, full screen apps work, the window info function has lots of new
lines and might scroll off the screen (It's eating the real estate
currently). 

Vanish works....
Occupy* works...
Everything else works...

Hmm. I think the only thing missing is to bind the mouse scroll wheel to
the change work space behaviour (I forget if that would work or if there
is a function for that ... grep ... grep ... grep, nope, can't find it).

Now all I have to do is finish my personal ctwmrc. Then test the cool
things that it can do and the even cooler things that it can't! :)

Sincerely,
David
