Hm.  I should have gone googling first.  (^&

But, the above URL refers to this as EWMH, not NETWM.  Is NETWM the
"old" name for the project?  Or is it just what developers call it
because the symbols all have NET_ prefixes?

Given that GNOME never "worked" all that well for me, even with the flavor-
of-the-month window manager that was its default, I don't expect much of it.
(^&  My impression was that it explicitly recognized, and supported, twm
as a window manager option, when I last ran it.  That seems like a
reasonable definition, for GNOME.

Maybe it's getting to be time for me to give GNOME another whirl...


Thanks for the info.
