Avant Window Navigator dying? Alternatives?
Posted: Mon Oct 10, 2016 9:50 am Post subject: Avant Window Navigator dying? Alternatives?
I am long term user of AWN and i still love it. Never had much trouble with it but it seems like this project is almost dead and is soon to be removed from Gentoo. I still hope it comes back to live like other projects that have been considered dead before (like Revelation or Compiz). Is there any useful alternative for XFCE users? I have used Docky or Cairo-Dock back in the days but AWN was better. Checking portage it seems like Cairo-Dock is gone as well and while Docky is still there it looks pretty dead too.
Anyone knowing of anything else useful?
I switched to x11-misc/plank from the sabayon overlay.
Thanks! Never heard of it. Looks ok on screenshots and at least alive and i'll give it a try.
