Oh gag me with a spoon. Okay, fork(2).
Given all the people who've worked on C over the years, perhaps we should
declare that "C" stands for "Community." :-)
Just to drag on the discussion...
http://freecode.com/projects/tvtwm says in part:
Tom's Virtual Tab Window Manager (tvtwm) is a superset of the X11R5
release of twm, initially written by Tom LaStrange. The major benefit of
tvtwm over twm is the "Virtual Desktop". This allows you do define a
substitute root window that is larger than your display area.
I used tvtwm at DEC/Compaq/HP. Every time I try to configure something in Gnome,
I think I should be getting tvtwm running. ASCII config file. Whadda concept.
I haven't followed this thread closely, my apologies if tvtwm has already been
brought up and disposed of.
