VARIOUS WMs: Pidsley (i686) Release News

[machinebacon]

Yeah, today we throw Pidsley on the grill!

Features:
- our self-made wmchooser
- some obscure window managers to choose from (alopex, cwm, monsterwm, sithwm, snapwm, dragonfly, karmen, echinus, euclid, wmfs)
- no GTK
- extra-fat CLI menu with new apps ("Hobby" and "System" sections added)
- new app: wmloader, to download the source of some obscure WMs (courtesy of pidsley)

Surprise: featuring an X server and productivity apps, it still only weighs 287MB

On a side note, WMFS needs manual adjustments and won't start in its default state. Probably xbindkeys is the culprit. Anyway, "Pidsley" will be the base release for Window Managers that are not in the Debian repos.
