BlackBox for Windows
Blackbox for Windows is based stylistically on the Blackbox window manager for the X Window System by Brad Hughes,
however it does not use the same codebase except for the gradient rendering code
The foundation of Blackbox for Windows is
full cross-platform support
- a theme (or style as it is
called in *nix) can be taken directly from *nix and used in Windows
with little or no difference in appearance
- this means
- unlike most other shells - themes don't have to be custom
created for the shell
- hundreds upon hundreds of styles are at themes.freshmeat.net (login required) and at box-look
- strong portability of Fluxbox & Blackbox (for *nix) user configuration files - fully recreating the *nix interface on Windows
From the time the first line of code was written, Blackbox has evolved around one premise
- minimalism
- it's not meant to be Eye Candy (even though it is fairly simple to
make it look really cool!)
- nor is it meant to be the most fully
featured shell out there
- it is just meant to be fast
