Is it just another window manager, or more than that?

My understanding is that it is intended to be a complete desktop environment, only much slimmer than KDE or Gnome. (I believe it uses FLTK.) I don't think it is there yet as some components remain to be developed. I downloaded it because I liked the look of it, but I never got around to compiling and installing it to test it out. Hmmm, yet another thing to add to my ever-growing "to do (someday" list. :)

Now that you point it out to me, the answer seems painfully obvious.

For snazziness for can't beat Crystal Icons but for them to be dispalyed on the dektop the lastest or next to latest verion of ROX is required.....


Or has someone been able to convert them to a format the current Puppy ROX can display

Puzzled now........by Bladehunter :?

I've just downloaded a set of Icons from the link in the above post, and they work fine with my system ( and I'm only on Puppy1.0.1 )

Hey, are there any nice OpenOffice icons?
The official ones are very unexciting, and I would like a nice set, an icon for each of the modules in OO, to put on the desktop.
