I've heared of this window manager in the early days when starting with wmi development back in 2001 or so. However when looking at its overcrowded feature set and implementation I would say it is very far away from sucking less. Despite the fact that it has some tiling features, it is not simple at all. Looking at those crappy window flags that one can set and all the corner cases that those flags result in -- is a retrospective proof in itself why this concept never gained considerable attraction. Nevertheless I agree with the first statements Ellis made. Cheers, Anselm
