This is OpenBsd, fluxbox WM, the conky window just shows black, not sure why on that, I posted this for a demo, as being discussed in this thread/topic:http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php? ... 96#p725596

I forgot to mention the task bar is "tint2", it is useful for giving a index of sorts, showing everything I have open, to keep the main work area (window) clean, I generally "minimize" the ones I am not using, and just click the icon in the task bar to restore it. So any way, that's one way of using multi terminals, and keeping track of them.

E16 for a bit of bling

To jazzy for me but some nice features. light (4.5MB under ps_mem), bling, bling and more bling. The pagers are some of the most interesting I've tried with the slide action and dual workspace on each workspace/desktop so you get 4 workspaces on 2 desktops. The zoom feature is very nice. Lot's of themes, some are very dated but some are so old they're back in vogue. I'm using DreamWorks.

Edit: I need to correct this bit. The feature I tried to explain above has a name. "Areas" What areas does is allows you to expand the area of your workspace not just double it but but up to 8x horizontally and up to 8x vertically :shock: Yes your one workspace made up of up to 64 times it's current size, like tiles. Only one tile is is shown at a time but all can be viewed via the pager and you can can n drop between areas. You can also have up to 32 workspaces!

I was most interested in the Epplets to see if they could be used like dockapps. I think they're tied to the system unfortunately unless anyone knows otherwise?

edit: It also has "groups" which is basically what all the cool dudes are raving about as "tags" now. Only took them 20 years to catch on :-)

Also the latest update was july 2020 :shock:

The only non-Debian Linux install I have nowadays is my router - which is powered by IPFire.

Not really a desktop per se, but it's the desktop I use if I do anything with it.

It look's good! :mrgreen:

How does it perform? I suspect I will die soon. But I suspect I will look better than gnome 4 when dead :mrgreen: Looking good but having crap performance is crap. I want good looks like Sean Connery and performance like Ron Jeremy ( I realise I'm showing my age here :mrgreen: But the point is still valid).

BTW. I'm using icewm, notion4, and TWM :lol: IMHO all better than Gnome or KDE..... I see a wayland thread emerging :D

It's fast & smooth on my hardware but I play CS:GO on that so it is pretty beefy. My 10-year-old ThinkPad X201 runs (old) GNOME just fine though.

Are you not bothered by the codebase for X going into maintenance mode? GTK2 is now EOL as well. Bitrot much? :mrgreen:

Have you tried sway? It's just as light as i3, if not more so because the DRM stuff is handled natively under Wayland.

Here's my Alpine Linux box running sway:

FreeNix Laptop. notion4, mc htop all with treaked themes. Seamonkey running searx from my Freedombox
Image
Slackware Desktop. Base setup for both machines. mc and htop
Image

Notion is the only WM I don't really need to change much from the default settings. Because I use mc and htop I switch F2 to F11 in notion to avoid clobbering the keybinds in MC & htop that use the first 10 Fkeys by default. F2 on notion is xterm but I use super+enter anyway. As I'm a mouse lover the only keys I use regularly in notion is super+v super+h super+. super+space super+tab super+i super+shift+i F12 and escape. When I think of the days and days and hundreds of lines of editing I spent getting the same result in openbox I could cry. Thank goodness they changed the license. :mrgreen:

Been playing around with shod a mouse driven tabbed wm.

It's based on ideas from notion (my daily driver) plan 9 and others and very unixy. Very easy to build and use. Beta or better quality atm but most definitely usable now. Light weight (1MB in ps_mem). I have it running with fittstool and wmbubble and that's enough once setup. i.e. workspace switching with mouse wheel, killing session etc..

I also have xclickroot, xmenu and pmenu from the same developer just to check them out.

Hey, shod developer here, I'm glad you're using and liking it!

I'm working on it continuously and every now and then I add something (and remove another).
The last additions were X resources to order the dockapps on the dock (until now they were mapped on the order they spawned) and Xft font for the title bar text (and some bugfixes). I also renamed the X resources, some of them have a different name now.
If you have any feature request or bug report, please contact me via email or open an issue on github, so I can keep the project living.
I have bound shodc commands to keybindings in order to control shod with the keyboard. shodc is shod's remote controller.
Some operations cannot be done with shodc however, and must be done with the mouse (like tabbing and tiling). I'm thinking in ways I can make shodc perform those actions.

Here's my OpenBSD desktop from some days ago (Xft fonts had not been implemented yet).
The screenshot features my newest project: paginator, a desktop pager that can be docked into the dock.
