For the window managers, try fvwm, it has a Motif-like look, and consumes very little memory (around 300 KB againt ctwm 3.5 MB :-)). Available on sunsite.unc.edu in /pub/Linux/X11/window-managers as fvwm-0.99-src.tar.gz. For xterm, try rxvt, current version is 1.4, again on sunsite into /pub/Linux/X11/xutils/terms (not sure, check). Memory consumption is about 400 KB per rxvt (against 1.2 MB for xterm). Needs a patch for c_cc array (beginning of command.c to put control characters in the proper order) and another patch for TIOCSETA instead of TCSETA. Patch follows. diff -r -u rxvt/Makefile rxvt-new/Makefile --- rxvt/Makefile Thu Oct 14 20:26:59 1993 +++ rxvt-new/Makefile Sun Oct 24 17:08:37 1993 @@ -1,11 +1,11 @@ # @(#)Makefile 1.4 21/9/92 (UKC) # -CC= gcc +CC= cc #usually, DESTDIR is empty -MANDIR=$(DESTDIR)/usr/man/man1 +MANDIR=$(DESTDIR)/usr/local/man/man1 BINDIR=$(DESTDIR)/usr/bin/X11 -USRLIBDIR=$(DESTDIR)/usr/lib/X11 +USRLIBDIR=$(DESTDIR)/usr/X386/lib INCROOT=$(DESTDIR)/usr/include/X11 # Rxvt now include optional utmp support. @@ -21,9 +21,9 @@ # This define makes SYSV type systems to include utmp support ("who"); # This is ok for Linux -DEFS = -DUTMP_SUPPORT -DUTMP=\"/etc/utmp\" +#DEFS = -DUTMP_SUPPORT -DUTMP=\"/etc/utmp\" # Using this defines adds in UTMP support for Sun OS 4.1.x -#DEFS = -DUTMP_SUPPORT -DUTMP=\"/etc/utmp\" -DBSD +DEFS = -DUTMP_SUPPORT -DUTMP=\"/var/run/utmp\" -DBSD # for most systems: diff -r -u rxvt/command.c rxvt-new/command.c --- rxvt/command.c Tue Oct 12 19:10:53 1993 +++ rxvt-new/command.c Sun Oct 24 22:58:55 1993 @@ -28,7 +28,7 @@ #include <sys/wait.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <stdlib.h> - +#include <sys/ioctl.h> #include "rxvt.h" #include "command.h" #include "screen.h" @@ -89,25 +89,30 @@ OPOST | ONLCR , B9600 | PARENB | CS8 | CREAD, ISIG | IEXTEN | ICANON | ECHO | ECHOE | ECHOK | ECHOCTL | ECHOKE, - 0, { - 003, /* VINTR */ - 034, /* VQUIT */ - 0177, /* VERASE */ - 025, /* VKILL */ 004, /* VEOF */ - 000, /* VTIME */ - 001, /* VMIN */ - 000, /* VSWTC */ + 000, /* VEOL */ + 000, /* EOL2 */ + 010, /* VERASE */ + 027, /* VWERASE */ + 025, /* VKILL */ + 022, /* VREPRINT */ + 000, /* spare 1 */ + 003, /* VINTR */ + 034, /* VQUIT */ + 032, /* VSUSP */ + 031, /* VDSUSP */ 021, /* VSTART */ 023, /* VSTOP */ - 032, /* VSUSP */ - 022, /* VEOL */ - 022, /* VREPRINT */ + 026, /* VLNEXT */ 017, /* VDISCARD */ - 027, /* VWERASE */ - 026 /* VLNEXT */ - } + 001, /* VMIN */ + 000, /* VTIME */ + 000, /* VSTATUS */ + 000, /* spare 2 */ + }, + 0, + 0 }; /* Variables used for buffered command input. @@ -249,7 +254,7 @@ close(ttyfd); if(mask == 0x7f) ttmode.c_cflag = B9600 | PARENB | CS7 | CREAD; - ioctl(0,TCSETS,(char *)&ttmode); + ioctl(0,TIOCSETA,(char *)&ttmode); scr_get_size(&width,&height); tty_set_size(0,width,height); setgid(getgid()); diff -r -u rxvt/rxvt.c rxvt-new/rxvt.c --- rxvt/rxvt.c Mon Oct 11 20:28:23 1993 +++ rxvt-new/rxvt.c Sun Oct 24 17:08:54 1993 @@ -13,7 +13,6 @@ * he guarantee anything whatsoever. */ #include <stdio.h> -#include <malloc.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <Xlib.h> diff -r -u rxvt/utmp.c rxvt-new/utmp.c --- rxvt/utmp.c Tue Oct 12 02:03:17 1993 +++ rxvt-new/utmp.c Sun Oct 24 17:14:58 1993 @@ -42,7 +42,7 @@ #include <utmp.h> #include <unistd.h> #ifdef BSD -#include <lastlog.h> +/*#include <lastlog.h>*/ #include <strings.h> #endif #include <pwd.h> -- Ollivier ROBERT Ollivier.Robert@keltia.frmug.fr.net A FreeBSD & PERL addict...
