Thanks for all the replies regarding getting olvwm running. From what I gather the binaries of olvwm don't work with the current gcc an linux versions so I have to compile the source myself. this has caused me a few problems that I haven't been able to

After using zsh for a couple of months I have grown to like it. Could someone direct me to a site that has the zsh source and Linux diffs ? I would also be interested in knowing what the differences are between zsh and ksh ? I have not seen ksh yet
