Can anyone point me at some documentation about the xwm X window manager in the public directory in the Release 6 distribution? I've been looking for an explorer-resident window manager. Is this xwm worthwhile/working?

Is this >xwm worthwhile/working? It's working. You don't need docs, just play around with the menu items on top of the windows. You can basically move, iconize, raise/lower and resize. I don't think you can define menus as in twm for example. Is it worthwhile? There are/were some prblems with TI's X-server - twm does not work too well with it, so xwm might be your best/only choice.
