Window Maker #45

Closed mindingulove closed 5 years ago

mindingulove commented 5 years ago

Is there any way of installing a GUI in PureDarwin like WindowMaker? That would make it an Spiritual Openstep Sucessor. Thank you

wjk commented 5 years ago

In a word, no. We are nowhere near even considering a GUI at this point. Furthermore, the GUI toolkits that work on Linux (WindowMaker included) aren't compatible with non-Linux kernels, such as the XNU kernel used by PureDarwin. Thank you for your question.

Why not? WindowMaker actually works on some BSDs, I don't think it needs that many dependencies - so at the very least, as long as X11 works, it should run on PureDarwin as well, right? At least by compiling it all on your own.

Hello,

Could you subscribe Frank Verhoog from this mailinglist please? He passed away the 7th of may. And i cannot do it, because i don't have his Login codes.

Kind regards,
