i do wish to try that... i moved away from enlightenment, moved over to fwm
i think it is, it is available from my "stock" RH6.1 install... as i do not
have internet access on the current linux box (an ISA winmodem is what i
have in place of a real modem) nor do i have a network card for it to try to
network it to my other computer, nor do i have a zip drive on it, nor do i
have a cd writer, i just may have to "reserve" a copy of BSWare and make it
to the next meeting... i know i can reserve through www.kalamazoolinux.org
and i probably will either later tonight, or tomorrow...

ok so my main problem/dillema right now is more that my screen isn't "big"
enough to show all of a window, in that i mean it's res is set to 640x480
and i want it to be 800x600... on windows i know how to change, simply
right-click desktop, blah, blah, blah, but here, in the new terrain i seem
to be wandering i do not know how to resize the desktop resolution... that
and strangely i no longer have multiple desktops... that i think is in part
do to fwm not necessarily being "gnome compliant" at least i got a message
to that affect when i restarted the computer and then started up X...
