I've been using X Windows R3 with awm for a couple of months now and
generally I think its an improvment over SunView but:

1.	How do I get xterm to use an icon that i've made using the bitmap
editor?  With Sunview I had various (DIY) icons for my shell and command tools,
I'd like to do this with X.

2.	Is it possible to use a different screen saver? I quite like the idea of
having xfish come up in inverse after no screen activity for say 5 minutes.
(its a shame thats I can't run it as my background, but on a Sun 3/50 with
only 4 MBytes -- Leave it out Jon!)

3.	Are there any other window managers in the public domain (awm?) which
look/feel a bit jazzier than awm (Someone on site has Sun's NeWS but it
sure shags his machine, but the interface looks quite natty... good
even!).

4.	Have I posted this to the wrong newsgroup (its my first posting)

5	Is there any where else where I can look for X begginers stuff??

Answers please on the back of a camel to the geezer at the bottom here.
