Sawfish, a window manager scriptable in Lisp
- JNRowe 7y agoThinking back to sawfish and the last time I saw it, it reminds me of jwz's classic "Cascade of Attention-Deficit Teenagers"¹ statement. It clearly isn't the kindest description of the problem, but it does feel valid IMO. It feels like we've been through so many different "default" window managers with gnome I had to actually look up whether sawfish was just a common replacement or one of the many at-one-time-blessed components of the environment. FWIW, it was the default up to 2.2². [This message was brought to you by Team Enlightenment Fan Club ;)] 1.
