I have used just about every window manager there is on my cube...they compile under X11 R4 on the NeXT as well as they do on any machine. The only one I have had problems with was "ugly window manager" (uwm), and that may have just been the R3 version that gave me trouble. Currently I use tvtwm, which in some ways is superior even to the NextStep window manager in the things it can do. It is available wherever contrib source code is available for X. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Douglas Scott Columbia University Computer Music Studio Internet: UUCP: ...!columbia!woof!zardoz!doug Phone: (703)765-4771
