Dear Guys, I have downloaded the 4.0.0. beta, and could notice that xmbmf is no longer required to compile. What about a classical ./configure?
Since CTWM has been coming on many platforms and it could be destined to more modern compilation method, the xmbmf might be no longer required. However, I believe that a simple way to compile is the key of such powerful wms. ./configure might be ok, but actually not necessarily. I like the way EVILWM is being compiled. Simple, clean and efficient. It does not need much. "make" has been since aged employed. Since CTWM is a lightweight WM without heavy required libraries, some possible improvement on making easy compilation might be / may be / could be ... of interest, for me. Well, to say, I haven't managed to compile 4.0.0. beta :( :( I am not sufficiently experienced and still learning basics of C. It might take 4-5 years more before I can do anything. best regards, Another minimalist guy, with just termcap/signal/ncurses + x11lib On Tue, May 9, 2017 at 3:12 PM, Matthew D.
