Common Lisp.
If you're tired of flipping through themes like channel-surfing, and going
from one perfect-except-for-just-one-thing window manager to another
even-more-broken-in-some-other-way then perhaps Stumpwm can help.
Stumpwm attempts to be customizable yet visually minimal. There are no window
decorations, no icons, and no buttons. It does have various hooks to attach
your personal customizations, and variables to tweak.
* Hack the good hack.
* Debug your good hack.
* Customize your window manager.
While it's running. That's right. With a 100% Common Lisp window manager
there's no stopping the hacks. Just re-eval and GO!

may either run a program or simply write something on standard out. It is
inspired by, and is similar in function to, 9menu and ratmenu but is muchly
improved. It includes: User settings in X resources, long and short option
names (using getopts), scrollable menus (if they do not fit on screen), both
mouse and keyboard support, exiting on unfocus, and a decent manpage.

- Split evas and ecore to separate modules to handle dependencies properly

"main core", ROX-Filer as file manager (manages icons on the desktop), xterm,

GNOME 2.20 release notes can be found at
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.20/notes/en/ . Beyond that, this update
includes the new GIMP 2.4 (courtesy of ahze).
The GNOME 2.20 update also includes a huge change in the FreeBSD GNOME
hierarchy. We are now using the more standard DATADIR of ${PREFIX}/share
rather than ${PREFIX}/share/gnome. The result is that fewer patches and
hacks are needed to port GNOME components to FreeBSD. This will mean some
user changes may be required, so be sure to read /usr/ports/UPDATING for
more details.
This release and the things we accomplished in it would not have been
possible without mezz's crazy idea to collapse DATADIR, and his persistence
to make it happen successfully. Ahze and pav also deserve thanks for
their work on porting modules and testing the whole ball of wax on
pointyhat (respectively).
The FreeBSD GNOME team would also like to thank our various testers and

Windows can be managed in several layouts: tiled and floating. Each
layout can be applied on the fly, optimizing the environment for the
application in use and the task performed.
Managing windows in tiled mode assures that no space will be waste on
your screen. No gaps, no overlap.
