I think I'd still be using FVWM - I had a nice setup with no window titles or
borders and keyboard driven layout/positioning, many desktops indexed by name
with supporting scripts to make new ones ("nd TASKNAME" => new desktop and
new menu item), etc.
I've been on a Mac for several years these days, and I'd be missing iterm3
greatly if I were back on an X11 desktop. A keyboard driven window manager
(Divvy for me), autohiding menu bar and dock, and minimalist iTerm3 setup
gets me a setup pretty much as seamless as my FVWM setup.

Thanks, Cameron! I just checked at
fvwm.org and it appears that fvwm is still back under
active development (with a v3 apparently in the works). However, I have to say that
openbox (and even pekwm) have been pretty good to me.
Btw, can I get your filer? It turns out that procmail does not allow the format of a
Maildir file to be changed. One option is to figure out setting the hostname env for
procmailrc (and mutt) to say localhost.localdomain (that name would be generic enough to
be common across machines) or give up and continue with the MH format (though in that
case, I need to figure out what is in a .mh_sequence in order for a mail-monitoring
program -- originally xbuffy -- I spent days/weeks modified for sylpheed to work).
But I am interested in your filer script for curiosity's sake also. I looked around
your bin pages but could not easily figure out which one it was: of course, it may not
also be there.
Thanks again!
