Hi Jaromil, For fifteen years I've tried, over and over again, to make sense of WindowMaker. Some folks whose opinions I greatly respect love Windowmaker. And Windowmaker is low-resource: About as low as Openbox, according to https://l3net.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/cmp-all4.png . But I can't make Windowmaker efficient for my workflow and work habits. I've tried and tried. Jaromil, you'd be doing the world a great service if you wrote a document explaining the mindset one must adopt to make Windowmaker work for them? How does one best use the paper clip and the Ubuntu Unity like icons that line up at the screen's edges? How to best handle window sizing? How to best deal with menus? How to configure your Windowmaker for best workflow efficiency? If you do this, I'll be glad to write the part on how to incorporate Suckless Tools' dmenu into Windowmaker. Thanks, SteveT _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
