EvilWM is a very minimilistic window manager. Download∞

I do not think many people would like or use EvilWM, but if you like minimalistic solutions, you may like it. After a short period of time to get used to the keyboard shortcuts, you might find that it is a very efficient way to deal with your windows. It is not much like Windows 95. In any case, before trying to use it, read the Useage∞ page.

There is no menu, so you either need to run a seperate menu program
or start programs by typing their names in a terminal window (rxvt).

To shut down EvilWM, press ctrl+alt+backspace, then restart X by typing startx or xwin

Some keyboard shortcuts:

ctrl+alt+Q close window
ctrl+alt+X maximize window
ctrl+alt+1 switch to desktop 1
ctrl+alt+2 switch to desktop 2
ctrl+alt+8 switch to desktop 8
ctrl+alt+ENTER open an rxvt window

Notes:

I included EvilWM with the installer that installs IceWM on the hard drive because

1. it's very small, only 20k
2. I was using it when i tested the IceWM installer, I did not have Fvwm95 or Jwm installed at the time
