Re: [DNG] A heads up about xfce's future

Hi, Like, I assume many, on this mailing list, know what to do when they opt not to install the default window manager or desktop. However, I think, XFCE is a good choice, although on my T4400 2GB computer it tends to be rather heavy. Window managers are attractive with respect to low resource

With respect to all parties, I don't see why any particular stance on the list is going to make any material difference in Devuan at the present moment. Devuan is in Alpha 4, and the decisions for this version have been made. I think it is best to table these kinds of debates for the next

Just to clarify about "default" desktop environment and what that actually means. The "default" desktop environment is the one that gets squeezed onto the first CD/DVD of a set of installation media, as well as the one that's installed if you just click "desktop environment" in tasksel without

Re: [DNG] Speaking of Window Managers

I use hotkeys extensively in Fluxbox. Fluxbox allows you to set each hotkey individually, so you could have Ctrl-Alt-a perform one action and Control-Shift-a perform another. I would like the configuration to allow variables and multiple hotkeys. This should be a valid configuration:
