[gentoo-user] Small (as in footprint) window manager

[Daniel Frey]

I've been trying to clean up my machines (pruning world file, etc) and 
am making progress.

I ran into one issue, that being on my server (mythtv, file, etc) I am 
normally in text/ssh mode but occasionally I need X for something.

Does anyone have suggestions for a small-footprint window manager (I 
have no need for a full desktop environment) as twm is just fugly and 
sometimes not intuitive. I also don't need a file manager as I use 
Midnight Commander which works well for my needs. This all stems from 
occasionally needing a gui for configuring mythtv or the ability to have 
two shells open side by side.

I am thinking others have most likely had this problem at some point and 
have found something that's lightweight for this type of purpose.
