Back to search · Project homepage

Description

Fluxbox is yet another window manager for X. It's based on the original Blackbox 0.61.1 code. Fluxbox looks like Blackbox and handles styles, colors, window placement, and similar things exactly like Blackbox (100% theme/style compatibility). So what's the difference between Fluxbox and Blackbox then? The answer is: LOTS!
