As many of you have noted and recently stated, twm ignores an applications "hints". For a long time I could not make a choice between twm and awm. It was a matter of which "bugs" I wanted to live with. They are both good window managers (no flames please) but need a little cleanup. I decided to work with twm because I likeed the look and feel of it. It was also much less code to understand than awm. I have been working on twm for some time now and have fixed many of the bugs that have been mentioned. In a few weeks I will make paatch files available to the net. I have been trying to contack Tom L. to find out if he wants to merge my changes into twm. Maybe we should call the new one "tee-square"wm "t2wm". ;-) -Thomas Clodfelter @ JPL
