Yes this list is a really quiet one ;) hope there are still people subscribed and using the ctwm ;) > > Also, releasing a new version may spark some new interest in the > project, both from old users and potential new ones. (Although I think > CTWM probably is a pretty hard sell to newcomers.) > I am really a newbie, but i think that one list should work fine, i subscribed,maybe 1/2 year ago, and i did not see much traffic here. I used ctwm on some old sparcs and on some pcs, i was in a "finding out what wm will fit for me" phase. Now after this whole noise here and "new beginnig" i asked myself, should i try to get involved and i think i should. I like the speed, size and the clean look. I still need a lot more information and knowledge. First i really should get all information about ctwm i could get, are they all on the new page or are there some hidden files ;) I am interested in how WMs work, but i have no experience in programming, but i will learn. I have a little experience in using, installing and how to configure ctwm and unix. Most of the time i use *BSD. Sometimes solaris, hp-ux and on some days i install linux, but my main interest is about *BSD. I tried a lot of windowmanagers and they are all big, ugly and too much for me. The only two i really like are, windowmaker and ctwm. ( i must tell you, i have kde3.1 installed too, because i wanted to impress my boss, he is a man who only knows windows and maybe have heard something about a os called linux ) ;) and i only boot windows if i really, really need it. And sometimes my english grammar is a little bit, hmm strange, maybe because i am german and i do not write and talk much english. Now you know a little about me and i hope you give me a try ;) Thankfull for every bit of information. -- gruesse joerg "joerch" buechner -- wie immer alles subjektiv, pick dir das interessante raus und loesch den rest. --
