Does anyone know why the UNIX PC (AT&T 3B1) have only 12 window
devices (ie. w1-w12)?  Is there a physical contraint on what the
window manager can handle?  Can I just do a "mknod" and make a
few new windows (ie. w13-w20) so that I don't get "Cannot create
new window, close unecessary windows."  I have a couple of
processes (daemons) that take up windows for the status lines, and
it reduces my window-power!  Does anyone have any suggestions?!
