I've been using evilwm for almost a year on my workstation and laptop, and I must say that I'm very satisfied. I used it a couple of months with Debian unstable before moving on to OpenBSD 3.8, and later 3.9. I've made a screenshot available here for limited time: http://www.cs.aau.dk/~mt/evilwm.png I use it in conjunction with Enlightenment's terminal, Eterm, and (at the moment) a nice wallpaper from http://themes.freshmeat.net/projects/opuwa/ Everything you need to know to use evilwm is described in its manual page. Go and try it out - just install the package. My .xsession and Eterm theme file are attached for your convenience. /Martin <Eterm-0.8.10> begin main begin color foreground white background black tint 0xffffff shade 0% cursor #ffff00 cursor_text #880000 menu_text white scrollbar #3f1c00 unfocusedscrollbar #777777 pointer white video normal color 0 rgb:0/0/0 color 1 rgb:cc/00/00 color 2 rgb:00/cc/00 color 3 rgb:cc/cc/00 color 4 rgb:00/00/cc color 5 rgb:cc/00/cc color 6 rgb:00/cc/cc color 7 rgb:fa/eb/d7 color 8 rgb:33/33/33 color 9 rgb:ff/00/00 color 10 rgb:00/ff/00 color 11 rgb:ff/ff/00 color 12 rgb:00/00/ff color 13 rgb:ff/00/ff color 14 rgb:00/ff/ff color 15 rgb:ff/ff/ff end color begin attributes title Eterm-0.8.10 name Eterm-0.8.10 iconname Eterm-0.8.10 scrollbar_type motif scrollbar_width 10 font 0 fixed font 1 6x10 font 2 6x13 font 3 8x13 font 4 9x15 end attributes begin pixmaps path "/usr/local/share/Eterm/pix/" end pixmaps begin toggles map_alert 1 visual_bell 0 login_shell 1 scrollbar 0 menubar 0 utmp_logging 1 meta8 0 iconic 0 home_on_echo 1 home_on_input 0 home_on_refresh 1 scrollbar_floating 0 scrollbar_right 1 scrollbar_popup 0 borderless 0 save_under 0 trans 0 watch_desktop 0 no_cursor 0 menubar_move 0 pause 0 xterm_select 0 select_line 0 select_trailing_spaces 0 viewport_mode 0 end toggles begin keyboard smallfont_key less bigfont_key greater app_keypad 0 app_cursor 0 end keyboard begin misc print_pipe "lp" save_lines 1024 min_anchor_size 0 border_width 5 menu Eterm.menu term_name xterm-color debug 0 end misc end main /usr/X11R6/bin/xset m 0 4 & /usr/X11R6/bin/xset s off & /usr/X11R6/bin/xset b off & /usr/X11R6/bin/xset -dpms & /usr/local/bin/Esetroot ~/.wallpaper.png & /usr/local/bin/evilwm -term /usr/local/bin/Eterm
