FvwmCDE-m is nice, I mentioned it in the FvwmCDE webpage. But the main
thing I hate about FvwmCDE-m is that it's Tcl/Tk based. And thus eats
memory like there was no tomorrow.. :)
Personally I prefer C-language based ones (like FvwmCDE!! :) which are in
my experience both faster and less memory-consuming than Tcl/Tk based
programs..
