My favorite by far is WindowMaker, but it isn't the graphical environment you seem to want. I use anything else so seldom (not counting a VT-100 compatible monitor that I use whenever possible) that I don't even have a runner up favorite. I do remember thinking that Ratpoison was pretty good, but I never used it enough to form a solid opinion about it. Eric
