It is completely modular, so there really isn't a Win32 equivalent, mainly as the Win32 is monolithic in design. > It's the relationship between GNOME and Xwindows that I don't get? X is the desktop server. GNOME is a window manager which can be configured, have code written for and whatnot. There are plenty of other window managers around. > Anybody want to take a shot at getting this into the thick skull of > tepy? Hope that helps.
