8/2     I'm trying out Mac OS X and so far it's pretty good.  I really
        miss being able to raise and lower windows with key combinations.
        If someone could point me to instructions for how to do this and
        how to do other window manager customizations supported by
        fvwm, AfterStep, GNOME, etc., I would be grateful.  Thanks.
        \_ RTFM
          \_ WFM (which f**k*ng manual)?
             \_ uh...  man fvwm.  And we're all adults here.  just say "fucking"
                or "fine".  bleeping yourself is dumb.
        \_ run twm!  ~scotsman/.twmrc
           \_ But that won't work for OS X apps will it?
        \_ Jaguar, Aug 24. Command-Tab, Command-H
           \_ I'm sorry, I don't understand your reply.
              \_ And you call yourself a Mac user?  I haven't touched a Mac
                 since 1986 or so and I know exactly what he's talking about.
        \_ i assume you want this for Mac apps (Carbon or native Cocoa),
           rather than X11 apps under DarwinX. most apps support these
           "organic" window operations:
           - cmd-H for hide all
           - cmd-` for next window
           you can use (shift)-cmd-tab for (prev) next app, add option
           to hide the current window or current app when switching.

           OS 10.2/Jaguar may expose additional Window Manager APIs for
           more traditional/mechanical window operations.
