You are doing a great job developing Tiny Core.

I am not suggesting this is high priority or critical.

Just sharing what I experience, so if the opportunity arises where it can be rectified, you and Mike, and anyone else, are aware of it.
Many people see what is. Some people see what can be, and make a difference.

I view flwm in the same was as I view busybox.

Just as you, and likely many, have opted for coreutils to replace the shortcommings of busybox, the same holds true for the window manager, Just as busybox will never be as robust as coreutils, flwm, will likely never be as robust as the other much larger alternate window managers. Flwm is fully functional for intended use, just as busybox is.

My philosophy for Core is "just enought" X GUI Linux desktop and support infrastructure to enable you to pick and choose the applications, window manager, file manager, utilits.... that you want or require.

Alt+tab does not work.

<alt-tab> brings up the same menu as you get when clicking on the empty desktop - using flwm "classic" at least...

On further investigation, alt+tab works on an empty desktop.

It does not work if the mouse cursor is over a program.

As I said, I am not suggesting this is high priority or critical. Just sharing what I experience, so if the opportunity arises where it can be rectified, people are aware of it.
