Ooh, very nice superrad. I might have to take some ideas from that for my theme - it's been a work in progress since i first started using Linux, and I aim to find the perfect way for an OS to look before I die

I'm afraid that's in the eye of the beholder my friend. Being an archer, you should know this

Thanks, IMO Sleekness is one of the nicest dark themes for gnome. I'm never happy with the way my desktop looks though, always trying to find something else to add/change

full synergy with arch and fluxbox along with my ibm model M and my razer DA.

No, I shall find the perfect way! And anyone who disagrees with me is a liar!

I know how you feel, after messing with Gnome and KDE, using Openbox is a vary fun thing

nephish99 · 2008-08-29 04:35:00

I think, in a lot of cases, openbox and lightweight window managers appeal to the same kind of person that Archlinux appeals to. Not that I really need a lightwight WM, my box runs gnome on Ubuntu very comfortably. I like arch because It is light and snappy, and I have total control over everything. Which is also what i like about openbox.

Scripting is not too difficult to learn... I'm not a programmer myself, and a few months ago I didn't know how to script anything either... Just get yourself a nice shell scripting book for reference, make a habit of reading scripts you come across and trying to understand what it is that they do, try to apply the solutions you find to solve your own problems, and you should be able to start writing your own scripts in no time. It's a very useful skill to have.
I agree. Personally, the book I found helpful was the book on Bash published by O'Reilly, which also covers things like configuration files and the lesser known features of Bash. I believe that it was updated not too long ago when Bash 3 came out.

Gotcha, that's a real confidence builder. You guys are awesome. Thank you!

Imho, it shouldn't be just because it's light and snappy but because you like the way it works and that your comfortable with using Openbox(or any lightweight WM), no matter how good the box is.
