1407.0. "TWM (Tom's Window Manager)" by DLOACT::MANN () Mon Sep 11 1989 11:48

    Has anybody heard of TWM (Tom's window manager)?  We have a cutomer who
    wants to use it on DS3100 running UWS 2.1.  He tells me it is part of 
    X11 release. When he tries to use twm after killing dwm process, the 
    windows change but he can't get the windows activated.
    
    Thanks for your help.

I know a guy in Maynard that was running it on VMS. He had to do alot
of work to make it run. But he is EXTREMELY busy right now on some important
things, so I don't want to reference him yet.

Your customer should put 'sm.windowManagerName: twm' into his .Xdefaults
files and then dxsession will start up twm automaticly.
