Description: #
Twin is a text-mode window environment. It turns a text terminal into a X11-style display with window manager, terminal windows, and can also serve as display for remote applications. Each terminal window provides the functions of a text-mode Linux console. Twin runs on X11, libggi, itself, the Linux console, and any termcap/ncurses-compatible tty. It supports multiple simultaneous displays, and can attach/detach each display on the fly. WWW: http://linuz.sns.it/~max/twin/ - Samy Al Bahra samy@kerneled.com

CC, CXX, CFLAGS, PTHREAD_CFLAGS and PTHREAD_LIBS may contain `/' in
them when using a non-default compiler/linker, so do not use `/' as
delimiter for s///. (I picked `|' instead)
