Thanks - I'll check 'em out.  I also forgot to mention that I use Blackbox
as well - just looks ugly under 8bpp (unless anyone has a nice 8bpp style
they could send me).  Do you know off hand if ctwm has support for
multiple workspaces?  That's one of the things I don't care for with twm -
only a single workspace...
