Small Windowmanager Enlightenment DR 16-7
That is a nice wallpaper, Cygnus. I also like the simple row of icons at the bottom.
How resource intensive is Enlightenment compared to the small Window Managers like IceWM or JWM? How can you tell?
At what specs would this Window Manager become too slow?

Theme-mix of Azteker2000/Azteker, heavily overworked.

The launchbar on the left is part of the Theme, I "puppyfied" the entries.

This made some problems.
As the windows have no border, it just looks good, if you activate shadows for your Xserver.
But then you got a "corrupted" Top-bar with the original theme from freshmeat.net.
You could see, that the menu was made up of small grafics, each dropping shadows.
So I removed the menu from the Topbar.
But tobe able, to keep the round corners on the top-bar, I had to use 1 picture of fixed witdh - so this just looks good with a resolution of 1024 pixel width.
For other resolutions you must edit
/root/.enlightenment/themes/Aqua-mu/buttons/images/macos-logo.png in mtpaint or Gimp.
I also get some small artifacts with shadows enabled.

I updated these 3 themes.
*removed*
Aqua-mu.pup
azteker2000-mu.pup
darkone-mu.pup
Changes to all:
fixed Display-errors when shadows are activated.
New in Azteker:
A "Puppy-Button".
It can display the tasklist, the main-menu, or toggle the visibility of the launchbar.
I also changed the menufont, as though the old one looked cool, it was difficult to read.

the most bothersome stuff is that i've to reinstall also puppy menu that went blank after deleting .enlightenment and didn't show up anymore even with menu regeneration..

How do you change the font size in the different themes? The menu fonts seem small and hard to read for these old eyes.
I am currently running the shade theme and it seems the mods are endless with enlightenment!
Great....more hours trying to figure out another toy

The unpleasent way:
Go to the folder of the theme:
cd /root/.enlightenment/themes/darkone
Search for the font-entries:
grep -rin Vera.*/ *
This lists all files with linenumbers, that contain the Vera -font.
Edit those lines with an editor, for example from Vera/7 to Vera/10
--------------------
Maybe easier:
Change the Font-Resolution of the Xserver:
Puppy - Control Panel - set global Font-size
--------------------
Maybe also possible:
Replace
/usr/share/enlightenent/themes/winter/ttfonts/Vera.ttf
and
/usr/share/enlightenent/themes/winter/ttfonts/VeraBd.ttf
with other ones.
Most of my themes (will) use these fonts, so if you replace them, you can affect most themes at once.
--------------------
We might need a script, that can replace font-sizes...

I found a severe memory-bug in the menu-editor, that could delete your menu.
Please update!
*removed*
----
Expect a "complete" Enlightenment next week.
I could automate/customize the setup, so it will be more"newbee-friendly"
Now some more testing and Addon-scripts.

Q: "When will E17 be finished?"
A: "When Duke Nukem forever is released"
No, E17 (CVS) already is nice.
You can use an August-release in Puppy:
http://www.murga.org/~puppy/viewtopic.php?t=5312
But as you can see, it is 40MB compressed (though I ripped out 20 MB).
Compared to that, E16 is a miniature with 1.2 MB + Themes.
And at moment, E16 is more userfriendly than E17, that misses some things, and where Addon-programs like menu-editors might not work any more in the next release due to Api-changes.
But the size really is the ko-criterium, so I'll stay with E16
