Well, I use sawfish (formerly known as sawmill) these days. It's fairly lightweight (though it definitely could be better), and supports lots of themes. It's largely written in Scheme, which is both good and bad. I tend to run into trouble when the window manager gets updated while running. It appears to dynamically load various routines, so if the file containing your exit routine goes away, you'll probably have to kill the X server to log out of an X session.. I use it largely because of the integration I get with Gnome, but there are many people out there who don't care about that stuff.. -- _ _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ ___ _ _ __ You never really learn to / \/ \(_)| ' // ._\ / - \(_)/ ./| ' /(__ swear until you learn to \_||_/|_||_|_\\___/ \_-_/|_|\__\|_|_\ __) drive.
