> When GNOME Shell happened, I was forced to go looking for a new window manager. I ended up installing Ratpoison. Wow, I used Ratpoison around 20 years ago. SunOS labs in school used some window manager I couldn't stand (don't remember which) and I saw a classmate with basically no window chrome on their display, and was intrigued. They helped me compile it (no small feat given our resource constraints) and off I went, until my hand started to cramp a year later from hitting ctrl-t so much. I switched to ion for awhile, and then ended up scavenging a linux box to do assignments from home. I'm happy to see some folks still holding firm on the "no-pointer" front.
