fvwm95 on Debian Squeeze


I'm interested in trying it out, if only in the name of historical curiosity. How can I?

apt-get install fvwm.

It's in the repos. I just installed it and updated my .xinitrc to say "start fvwm."

It's not as primitive as TWM. I might play with it for a while.

Edit: I'm starting to like FVWM.

Don't -- FVWM95 has been dead for many many years now.
