have either of you looked at the source for interface?
Actually not.
I started StepBox because I met some focus problem
and I know it may relate to window manager.
After InterfaceWM failed to run on my system (I didn't try hard),
I think it will be faster to have a GNUstep-aware window manager
by porting an existing one rather than writing a new one.
Therefore I didn't spend time on the InterfaceWM source code.
Rewritting hackedbox from C++ takes about two weeks,
and another two weeks to make it run.
(should be faster for people who are familiar with C++).
It's not perfect, but as least I have something to use and work on.
It's small, and can be smaller.
I think the core part (XEvent handling) could be a reference for others.
