Those numbers are still higher than I would hope for (I’m guessing 64-bit compilation isn’t helping; even ksh is taking 3MB). Maybe they shrink down some on a 32-bit machine, and depending on compiler options.  


My ksh is AT ksh93u compiled with libm so maybe that's why it is
larger.  Bash 4.2 on the same system uses 2988, so not much better.
bash does not use libm.


One thing I’d like to point out though, is that the Xserver itself is taking 
over 20MB, and it’s not fair to count that against CDE.


That's true but you need X to run CDE so you really can't avoid it.

Add this to your ~/.dt/dtwmrc.
Alt+Tab switches between applications on the current workspace/desktop.
Use Alt+F[1-4] to switch between workspaces.

You can choose different key strokes in the first column if you
prefer something else.

cut here
Keys DtKeyBindings
{
# Alt+Tab or Alt+up arrow = next window
AltTab root|icon|windowf.circle_up
AltUp  root|icon|windowf.circle_up

# Alt+Shift+Tab or Alt+down arrow = previous window
Alt ShiftTab   root|icon|windowf.circle_down
AltDownroot|icon|windowf.circle_down

# Alt+Fn key to move to specific workspace
AltF1  root|icon|windowf.goto_workspace One
AltF2  root|icon|windowf.goto_workspace Two
AltF3  root|icon|windowf.goto_workspace Three
AltF4  root|icon|windowf.goto_workspace Four
}
cut here



also, I am wondering if it is possible to use enhanced motif window manager
with it instead of mwm
It is an enhanced fork of MWM that has support for hints and other cool
stuff (can be found here https://fastestcode.org/emwm.html) (site does not
require javascript)


Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Re: [cdesktopenv-devel] MS style alt tabbing

[Richard L. Hamilton]

CDE window manager AFAIK is _not_ mwm but still dtwm, a derivative of mwm but 
with additional actions that can appear in configuration files (or be sent to 
it if you know how*) and maybe other CDE specific functionality.

If the functionality of emwm would not clash with the dtwm specific features, 
maybe it would be interesting to have something that combined them.

* I reverse engineered that back before CDE was open source and created a 
utility that will send f. commands to dtwm, although not all such are useful! 
That dtstyle could restart dtwm, but a script to edit .Xdefaults or some such 
could not, got me curious how that worked.

Not that I know of - just the standard CDE method.

also, I am wondering if it is possible to use enhanced motif window 
manager with it instead of mwm




CDE uses dtwm...  So you are probably not going to have a good time 
replacing it.

I was going to try a drop in replacement soon, so assuming no one else

thats always kind of a gamble.
