Exactly my point. > I switch and use exact copies of my home (and login setup) on lots > of different machines Same here. My ctwmrc is a neatly crafted piece of m4 programming that well-behaves on every system and every configuration. This is IMPOSSIBLE to do with Gnome (and, I expect, KDE as well). Gnome (and, I expect, KDE as well) is intended for a single desktop, using only Gnome applications and features. Think an average MS Windows desktop system. Anything more complex than that will make your live hell. > Because of this I have a script that symbolic links about a dozen > 'dot' file directories to specific 'OS' version dot files. to keep > them seperate. I've been told (but never tried) that you can maintain Gnome settings with some command line tools. This would make it feasile to write a tool that reads an abstract settings file and translates this to Gnome settings command for the specific platform. > ... but my findings is that Gnome has more compatability > problems with CTwm, than CTwm has with Gnome.
