Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

[musher0]

Good morning, everyone!

Member jplt has been bugging me (in a very polite way, I must say)
about creating an echinus thread under this heading because he feels
that this excellent wm really deserves having its own rallying point on
the Puppy forum.

And he's right, there are echinus threads scattered all over this place!
Project threads, in English:

http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?search_id=1796105749&t=47966 (aragon's)

Config thread, in French:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=90034 (config)
Note: anglophone threads above also explain the echinus configuration.

The most recent version of echinus, v. 0.4.9 can be downloaded from:

darkcity has made room for echinus on the Puppy wikka:

If you'd be kind enough to report below anything concerning echinus
on Puppy, and let's play on words a bit, any of your concerns about
echinus and your use of it. This can and should include any utilities,
menus, panels, etc., that work well with the echinus window manager.

So let's try to keep everything echinus in one place.
jplt, and echinus lovers generally, will love you for it!

Voilà, jplt, it's done! Have a great day, everyone!
