JWM pet package is 69 kb.
If ttuuxxx can strip down Icewm to only 1500 kb ... then including in the official Puppy
Can anyone explain what do we get of new features after adding 1431 kb.
There is a lot of goodies we could add if 1.5 mb were available.

One thing you could get is user "willhunts" 176 themes pet package
http://hostfile.org/icepak.pet
Plus just the looks blows away JWM even with gtk2, if you ever seen my my default themes in 3.0.2 with the puppy paws to close pages and golden dog bones to lower or minimize pages, Thats truly unique to puppy and took for ever to design and figure out.
Plus if you want to change the menu button, taskbar, and ,menu background its just 3 simple images and makes the theme look completely different, Its simple to change and no code involved. Which is excellent for new users. Also icewm has a lot more of configurations compared to jwm. for 1.5 mb I think its a keeper, actually I might be able to even make it smaller. maybe 1MB. I personally think its the most user friendly WM available to Linux. You have around 100 options if you want to change settings and the Best part Zigbert is ---------- Gxine works fullscreen, you can change the aspect ratio without borders or crashing. It just generally works much better.
