raymac46 Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Interesting article again.

It does mention GNUStep and NEXTSpace which are in the same userspace as Window Maker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raymac46 Posted June 23 Author Share Posted June 23 Probably the tiling window managers could be considered a third type of design for a desktop. They are certainly different from Windows or GNOME-like designs. But they would likely not be a first choice for a new Linux user. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that is any window manager as they are not desktop environments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
