Saw this on another site, looks like something I might try:

#cow #fvwm #wayland

Currently working on squeeze titlebars.

This is something which some people wanted in fvwm, and it actually comes from #ctwm, whereby the titlebar was squeezed to its length so it didn't take up the whole width of the window.

Wayland doesn't have any shape support (a la XShape extension) so doing this manually is tricky.

Anyway, screenshot attached of what squeezed titlebars will look like in CoW. Options for left, centre, or right aligned.

#fvwm

In 2003, fvwm launched a logo competition:

http://www.fvwm.org/fvwm-ml/10502.html

This was to coincide with fvwm's tenth birthday.

Several suggestions were put forward, as is archived here:

https://www.fvwm.org/Archive/Logos/

This was the winning entry -- there's links from the top of that page to past entries.

I just think it's a lovely piece of window manager history -- and shows the number of users who cared about this.

That was #fvwm in its prime -- alas, not any longer. :)

Today in the Guardian, 29,985 by Philistine (https://www.theguardian.com/crosswords/cryptic/29985):

5dn: X÷e = 13-19 (4)

Def is 13-19, i.e. "TEEN". Why? TEN (X), with E dividing it. Teens are 13-19 years old.

A very respectful nod to Qaos on this one, who's famed for his maths clues, for example:

"1005001001000 -- see? (5)".

Answer: CLOCK

Not sure if you've seen this, @lpbkdotnet -- but I thought of you...
