fvwm, fvwm3, 2bwm, tint2

Fvwm doesn't have too look retro.

This was inspired by some old awesomewm/bblean desktops from a certain site. I don't wish to name anyone, in case they wish to move on with their life.

The top bar is tint2 with icons taken from siji. I will include a similar bar using FvwmButtons in the next release.

Programs: firefox-esr, thunar, ncmpcpp, ranger
Thunar icons: Vertex Icons by horst3180
Gtk theme: Materia

I like 2bwm despite its flaws. So it's nice to have a similar setup in fvwm. I use 2bwm like keybinding for manual tiling. Fvwm is also capable of highlighting borders to indicate window states, as shown in the bottom right terminals.


If any of the original creators sees this, then I'd like to say that your style was excellent. These were some of the best looking desktops ever. You were truly creative back then. I wasn't around at the time, so I've only seen them in archived posts. I wish you all the best in life!
