TCPMeta MacModder Registered: 11/15/07 Posts: 1797 Loc: Florida, USA	Well I got WindowMaker to run on top of Tiger 10.4.2 This is what I done to get it to work. Installed the SDK to 10.3.x and 10.4.x DarwinPort X11 I installed window maker thru Darwinport. Then went into the X11 prefs and added a app launch with the command wmaker. I rebooted and launched it. That simple! I'll post a pic as soon as I can. _________________________ To live is to let die

Windomaker is a good choice. I did use it with my old Slackware installs from the 8 days, though those were different times. _________________________ MacBook 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo w/ 2GB DDR2 RAM & 120GB SATA 5400RPM HDD Canon Rebel XTI Google Cr-48 Beta Laptop
