Well sometimes I wonder if these brilliant folks armed with the words "user friendly" are going anywhere. It seems that the current popular trend is to mix the window manager functions with the applications and create a homogeneous moron friendly gui. It's great to lower the efficiency to empower the lower 5% of intellect to be able to use a mouse and do a couple of useful things. But I don't like driving down the highway at five miles an hour. So I wish well those who provide for the handicapped. I will continue to provide my ideas on gui productivity mixing separate pieces that create sports cars speed and handling and tractor trailor capacity. watman.com On kde, it takes 6 to 10 times as long to come up as fvwm and kde does not know how to handle multiple displays. But Linux will rule even if a few window manager crash and shatter along the way. Tom Watson tosiwmee
