- I am not an unix guru, but I have found the answer to the question of:
-
- how to run gwm instead of twm.
-
- You need to edit a file called xinitrc. I believe it was in /usr/lib/X11/xinit
-
- Change the line at the end from twm to gwm. Gwm has a mwm emulation mode
- that I think looks great, but I can't get the menus to pop-up.
