Comparison of MGR, SunView, OpenWindows and X11R6 (2022)
Who needs a jack-o-lantern when you've got a bright orange gas plasma display? This is a 1990 Solbourne Computer S3000 all-in-one workst...
The images below thus were captured with screendump(1), converted to Sun rasterfiles on the S3000 with sol2sun, transferred to and previewed with xv on my Raptor Talos II to ensure sanity and quality, and finally turned into PNG with ImageMagick because I love each and every one of you and you wouldn't be able to view them easily otherwise (probably). If you want to try this on your own compatible SPARC, though I caution I only vouch for its proper operation on a monochrome Sun framebuffer, I offer both a full binary distribution ( mgr-0.69-full-sunos413.tar.gz) or source with pre-built artifacts ( mgr-0.69-src+obj-sunos413.tar.gz), both of which are on the Floodgap gopher server. In fact, most of the UI conventions from SunView remain in olwm, except that window motion is now with the left (select) instead of middle (adjust) button, the vertical axis snap quirk is thankfully eliminated, and there are a few other minor changes with how menus open and close.
