Hi everybody,
The most annoying problem with XFree and Win32,is the window manager.
Some apps were ported to XFree+cygwin but lacking a good (not twm...) window
manager makes them useless...

What do you use as a window manager on Win32?
I tried kde WM (kwin) but it is too heavy for just letting me move/resize
the window. The ideal would be a Native Win32 that mimic the Win32 look-n-feel
by enabling just the standard win32 buttons, nothingmore.

Thanks to share your experiences
