SuSE 6.0 & WindowMaker.




Discussed with Cloudmaster after the last meeting that I couldn't
get to WindowMaker in SuSE 6.0 with a "startx wmaker" command.

Turns out that a shell script is missing from the international release.
Just in case anyone needs it, this goes in /usr/X11R6/bin, filename
"windowmaker" and permits a "startx windowmaker" command.

test -d ~/GNUstep || {

        wmaker.inst

        test $? = 0 || exit 1
}

exec /usr/X11R6/bin/wmaker
-------------------------------------------
I'm not certain why this is necessary  : )


Another observation on WindowTitleFont being the only to change
from theme to theme--wrote about this in "Stubborn WindowMaker
Fonts" ( http://www.luci.org/luci-discuss/msg00822.html ).

All the fonts *will* change...if one manually writes them into the
 ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WindowMaker file.  Type into this file that
all are Schumacher, and immediately upon saving the file, all will
change to Schumacher.  Afterwards, changing to a theme that uses
Helvetica for everything, WindowTitleFont changes to Helvetica,
and everything else remains Schumacher.
