Amazing how GNOME3 has boosted the popularity of functional WM ;-)
Well, I always liked twm. It's really impressive how one simple
program can live such a long life. If only I could figure out how to
switch keyboard layouts under twm! Also it would be wonderful to
automatically mount usb-drives.
If you're pulling in old stuff, an old version of gnome-terminal
might work,
although I do like xterm, used to start one in console mode white text on blue,
and then a user term in green on black. Old trick, have anything system related
very different so you don't reprise the old "typed that in the wrong
window" trick.
My system has two monitors. I can place terminals on different screens
and take pleasure of default configuration ;-)
Enjoy the wife, computers are just ones and zeros.
Thanks! I'll show this last paragraph to my wife.
