One more thing. The most part of WM is GPLed, so there is _nothing_ stopping anyone from making commercial support for it. One may for example write a book describing WM in every detail and sell it. That's the spirit of GPL. Developers do what they are interested in, but they don't restrain anyone from doing more boring things and sell it. I repeat: if you want to have boring things like documentation made for you, there is nothing stopping you from doing it for yourself or from hiring someone who will do this for you. Whining about some feature or artifact lacking on mailing list is not The Right Thing. To be frank, it is even rude behaviour. Comparing software people make in their free time to commercially-supported applications is pointless. Besides -- WM is easy to use enough to use it without documentation, though there exists some user documentation. _______________________________________________ INFO: https://windowmaker.org/lists/listinfo/wm-user ARCHIVE: https://windowmaker.org/lists/archive/wm-user/ FAQ: http://windowmaker.org/faq.html
