JWM: Chicken Wings (i686) Release News

Unread post by machinebacon » Mon Feb 17, 2014 8:59 am

Before it hits Sid, here is JWM in version 2.20, surrounded by a beautifully slick Debian 3.13-trunk kernel. The config is based on a jwmrc of pidsley, super-snappy, super-lite, a fucktastic Window Manager! Get it, it's really worth it this time.

installable via "sudo bbqinstaller"

^ try it. I've never tried jwm before and it blew me away: fast, clean and simple, can't ask for more.

Absolutely loving CW. A buddy turned me on to it the last weekend and I was astounded. Idling 45MB :O.

Welcome to the grill, Options. Nice take on the Kali tagline in your signature! ;)

Nice choice Options. As you can see by (many) praises, I love Chicken Wings and would definitely recommend it.

Thanks all. It's a learning curve from CrunchBang but it's one I'm excited to deal with. From Kali to LXLE to #! to BBQ, the graphical user interfaces have quickly faded away.
