@sulami
I've been using frankenwm since the work on packaging it for NetBSD.
I'm very happy with it and looking no further. Great WM!

Do you have any experience integrating it on a DE?
Anything to think about if I was to replace openbox by frankenwm on LXQt?
Any config in config.h I should be careful about?

Thanks!

Please feel free to close the issue.

I haven't actually tried that, but that should't be too bad in theory, given that it can leave space for a panel either on top or bottom. I'd just give it a go, I don't see any obvious reason why it wouldn't work. Let me know if it needs any adjustments for that.

Apparently FOLLOW_MOUSE can be a bit dodgy at times, c.f. #108, but you already know about that.

@sulami it worked fine, despite a few glitches. Had to stop the loading of the default config keys, as I was expecting.
But, also had to give away the desktop control to frankenwm for it to work.

I guess, I could invest some more time on this and make it work better but, I think I'll just go back to use only the window manager.
