I've ported the Openlook virtual window manager (olvwm) to run under
386BSD.  In addition to giving you a large "virtual" desktop this window
manager has a number of nifty extra features over the standard olwm.
I don't know if this has been done before, but if there's any interest
out there I could probably generate the diffs for the source and post
them.  You need the xview3 stuff installed for it to work.

Let me know if you're interested.

Mark.

PS Anyone had any luck with textedit?
