ASCII window manager and installer



Hello, it's me again...

since we are talking of low resource installers, and full featured
desktops on very low end hardware, I'll repeat a suggestion I've made
to every distribution I used since Mandrake 5.1

Red Hat, please please please make an RPM of the TWIN window manager
(URL below) and include it both as a multi window ascii desktop, and
maybe as a multi window text installer.
And since we are at that, please restart development of the SVGAText
package and make an RPM of it including working modelines for modern
and less modern cards.

TWIN and SVGAText together = multiple windows simultaneously at
1024x768 resolution or higher without X!!!!

Mutt, Emacs/VI, Lynx, text news readers... all you need for low
resource full desktop computing, without half of your CPU and RAM eaten
by a windowing environment heavy as hell.

Please, please, please....
