Is there still interest here for this sort of thing? I'm working on a Motif based desktop environment primarily for Debian but it should be portable to any Linux distro or BSD on any CPU architecture.

A few months ago I found out someone made a fork of MWM that adds support for UTF-8, Xinerama, and extended WM hints. This person also made a session manager, an IRIX-like Toolchest clone and a really nice image viewer called XImaging. The GitHub is here https://github.com/alx210

I did a bunch of configuration and I want to package it so others can easily install it. Right now there is no installer. I can only point people towards the source code and Debian repos and give them an archive with the configs and images.

Rename the file to .tar.gz or it will not extract right. Instructions are under EMWM-dist/emwm-conf/README

Features:
* Desktop Toolbox with user modifiable config.
* Minimal root menu with useful tools.
* Toolbox fail safe config in case you mess up the main one and a new Toolbox won't start.
* Hand made icons for minimized windows and for the Xfe file manager.
* Color schemes (GTK themes planned)

The Toolbox has entries to:
* Launch user programs
* Launch a run box for commands
* Suspend, lock, shutdown or reboot
* Change wallpapers
* Take screenshots
* Use a blue light filter (Redshift)
* Control display brightness (laptops only, needs extra Xorg config)
* Configure screen savers with xscreensaver

The desktop environment comes with apps like:
* Nedit - Text editor
* XImaging - Image viewer
* URxvt - Terminal emulator
* Xosview - Resource monitor
* DClock - Desk clock
* Xpdf - PDF reader
* Plan - Calendar
* XCalc - Calculator
* VLC - Media player
* Xfe - File manager
* Mgdiff - Compare files
* Rhinote - Sticky notes

I'm attaching two images. One is the default theme and the other is the almost finished dark theme.
