I'm looking into that now. I've made one minor tweak to JWM so far and the code is small and easy to follow. I'll look at the code for titles. I have a few other features I need to add to jwm, anyway. > FWIW, when I need a compact WM, I still favour aewm, or my customised > hacks thereof.

I'll take a look at it and perhaps switch to it for the next release. >> I'm building a small ramfs-based distro using Xvesa + jwm + fltk >> and the only issue I've noticed is the missing window titles. > > That sounds like an interesting thing...

We switched from a proprietary solution to a Linux-based one so we could control everything ourselves. It's been a tremendous learning experience building it. I have enormous respect for all of the Knoppix, DSL, and other related distros. FLTK works well in the environment, it's *much* smaller than GTK+, and I like all of the control I have over the GUI. Also, unlike GTK+, when I don't know something about FLTK, I can figure it out in hours rather than days. I'll figure out the JWM issue and post the result.
