[edit] Window Manager?

Beryl is a compositing window manager for the X Window System. […]
The window-manager, formely known as cgwd, is now named emerald.

I thought the window manager was named Beryl. —Frungi 22:21, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

That is a good question. I've wondered about Beryl being called a window manager before.--roger6106 22:25, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
  • AFAIK, Beryl is a window manager, and Emerald a theme/decoration manager. Beryl handles the movement and placement of, and interacion with, the windows. Emerald manages the design of the window decorations. With other WMs, both are one and the same. Isilanes 16:34, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge

Should this article be merged with Compiz, or should the Quinnstorm stuff from Compiz be merged here? It's hard to figure out for a newcomer. — Omegatron 15:08, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
