WMApp is a C++ based library for writing WindowMaker-style dockapps. To write a dockapp, it is generally necessary to perform some magic Xlib incantations, supply a clipping mask, and set up X event checking. Like larger graphics libraries such as GTK+ and Qt, WMApp automates this process by providing the classes and functions necessary for widget creation and callbacks. The library provides numerous widgets, all with the traditional dockapp appearance. Many common dockapps could already be rewritten to use this library.

This is the source distribution of XForms, a graphical user interface toolkit for X Window Systems. It should work under X11 R4, R5 & R6. XForms features a rich set of objects, such as buttons, scrollbars, and menus etc. integrated into an easy and efficient object/event callback execution model that allows fast and easy construction of X-applications. In addition, the library is extensible and new objects can easily be created and added to the library.

wxPython is a GUI toolkit for the Python programming language. It allows Python programmers to create programs with a robust, highly functional graphical user interface, simply and easily. It is implemented as a Python extension module (native code) that wraps the popular wxWidgets cross platform GUI library, which is written in C++.

This is a stable version of AfterStep. AfterStep is a NeXTstep style window manager and features quick easy configuration of the look and feel of your setup without the use of a .steprc file. Configuration in most cases is far easier than it used to be. There are a few small bugs, but this release is fairly stable. Included are a number of AfterStep applications including asclock, ascd, and xiterm. There are a number of other very Linux specific applications which are not at present included.

AfterStep is a continuation of the BowMan window manager which was originally put together by Bo Yang. BowMan was based on the fvwm window manager, written by Robert Nation. Fvwm was based on code from twm. And so on... It is designed to emulate some of the look and feel of the NeXTstep user interface, while adding useful, requested, and neat features. The changes which comprise AfterStep's personality were originally part of BowMan development, but due to a desire to move past simple emulation and into a niche as its own valuable window manager, the current designers decided to change the project name and move on. BowMan development may continue, but we will no longer be a part of it. Major changes from fvwm are: - NeXTstep-like title bar, title buttons, borders and corners. BowMan's Wharf is a much worked-out version of GoodStuff. To avoid copyright complications it is not called a "dock." - NeXTstep style menu. However, the menus are not controlled by applications; they are more of pop-up service lists on the root window. - NeXTstep style icons. These styles are hard-coded in the program, which is good for the consistent look of the NeXTstep interface.

awesome is a tiling window manager initially based on a dwm code rewriting. It's extremely fast, small, dynamic and awesome. Windows can be managed in several layouts: tiled and floating. Each layout can be applied on the fly, optimizing the environment for the application in use and the task performed. Managing windows in tiled mode assures that no space will be waste on your screen. No gaps, no overlap. This port contains the older and somewhat static 2.x branch of the awesome window manager. If you prefer the latest stable version, try the x11-wm/awesome port.

bbkeys is the keygrabber for the Blackbox window manager: bbkeys handles all keybindings and keyboard shortcuts for Blackbox. It uses Blackbox' Image classes for rendering its look and feel so that bbkeys will render itself to match whatever Blackbox style is used. It is highly configurable either via the "bbconf" GUI utility or by hand-editting bbkeys's config file.

bbpager is a pager tool for Blackbox, it uses KDE wm-hints to get the information from Blackbox.
