HI...

We are interested in running something other than DECwindows for a X-based
window manager on our VAX station 3100's and 4100's...the motivation being
that DECwindows is impossibly slow and yet we like to have X instead of VWS.

Has anyone ported the public-domain window manager TWM or MWM to VAX/VMS?
or any other public-domain window manager?

appreciate any help you can give us...
