Agreed. But adding those things (mrxvt, openmotif, freeglut, icewm, gdm [gdm 
disabled again, after your messages from last week]) didn't cost all that much 
time, really.
It was just to round things up a bit.
I intended to do a best_as_possible job from the outset, rather than quickly 
delivering incomplete or instable stuff. It is a question of someone's 
philosophy. This has always been mine. Sometimes causes problems when working 
in a team. I'm a perfectionist, who never gets satisfied by the quality of his 
own work.
