I would also like to sound my support for Fvwm 2.0.45. I have been
using it here at ASIC International since Fvwm 2.0.33 and have loved
it. It is MUCH beter to olvwm and not as color space hungry as the
other window managers that everyone else is praising (we only run on
Sparc Stations with 8-bit graphics here).
To those who only complain, why don't you help in cleaning it up
instead of begroaning it! If you are so dissaticfied, then leave!
You do not have to try to get everyone else mad about fvwm. That
only causes people not to try to work with it and fix it up. If you
refuse to be helpful, then just be quite!
