well more time has passed, and I might switch to scwm too. Maybe others
will follow.
This looks familiar to the minix discussion list, where they asked
"where've all the people who supplied patches gone to"
They'd gone Linux'.
If we all wait for the conversion tools to be written, we might wait a long
time.
I've rewritten my .fvwmrc several times so far. (1.24-> 2.0 -> extensions)
before that I had a .mwmrc, .twmrc & others.
I think I'll add a .scwmrc as soon as possible.
