The name qvwm derives from the following: 'q' stands for '9'(same
|
|
|
|
|
pronunciation in Japanese and almost the same shape) and 'v' for '5'(V
|
|
|
|
|
is 5 in Roman numerals) Also, qvwm is "98 Window Manager" because 'v'
|
|
|
|
|
stands for '8'(vertically flipped, V is similar to 8 in kanji
|
|
|
|
|
characters).
