It was originally -based on Blackbox and currently remains very similar, even using Blackbox -styles for its themeing. +Openbox is a standards compliant, fast, light-weight, extensible +window manager. -Openbox is written to be fast. It is designed to be both fast in functionality -and in performance. Meaning that you, as a user, can do what you want quickly, -and the window manager will respond quickly to your every request. +Openbox works with your applications, and makes your desktop easier +to manage. This is because the approach to its development was the +opposite of what seems to be the general case for window managers. +Openbox was written first to comply with standards and to work +properly. Only when that was in place did the team turn to the +visual interface. -Another goal of Openbox is to be usable. What good is a piece of software if -it is hard to use and, then ends up going unused. Openbox aims to take its -original codebase to the next level. To make everything - from shading a -window to configuring the window manager - easier. But to do this while -maintaining the bloat-free approach that has been present in Blackbox from -the beginning. To present a slim, speedy, attractive -window-manager-alternative for everybody. - -WWW: ${HOMEPAGE} +Openbox is fully functional as a stand-alone working environment, +or can be used as a drop-in replacement for the default window +manager in the GNOME or KDE desktop environments.
