the empty calorie 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2006 The proper term is Window Manager, not a "Windows Environment". All it deos is well, Manages Windows. Many have menus you can use to run programs without having to use the shell. In some cases, you have to hand edit a config file to set up a menu, but most of the time, you don't have to. A dektop Environment is not one program, but an entire suite of programs to create your graphical user interface. I tend not to like them myself, because I have better things to use my resources with that wasting my power on that extra crap running. I hate desktop icons myself, they tend to create a mess.To answer someone's question, XFCE is a desktop environment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
