Over the summer, the windowmanagers locker will be 'updated' and
'revamped' to have fewer windowmanagers, but to keep them supported
and new.
As such, it would be appreciated if you guys helped test the replacement
locker.
To do so, in your .environment, put:
detach -q windowmanagers
attach windowmgr
setenv WINDOW_MANAGER {windowmanager}
i.e. I have
setenv WINDOW_MANAGER /mit/windowmanagers/bin/vtwm.gamma
Then, log in as normal, and send bug reports to the windowmgr list.
Also, remember you've done this, since after the change happens,
your stuff will break (it will become 'attach windowmanagers', and
'windowmgr' will be dropped).
