I’m wondering if anyone here is able to assist …
tvtwm is Tom LaStrange’s modified version of the twm window manager: Tom’s Virtual TWM.
Somewhat unusually, tvtwm modelled the screen as a single large window and the display was
a viewport that could be shifted around it, rather than the now-standard model of distinct
virtual desktops.
I’m trying to rebuild the history of its releases. I have the initial release, and the
first 6 patches Tom published via comp.sources.x, the 7th patch from the X11R5 contrib
tape, the 10th patch from the X11R6 contrib tape, the widely available patch 11, and an
incomplete patch 12 via personal email from Chris Ross, who took over maintenance from Tom
at some point.
So, I’m looking for patch 8 and/or patch 9 (either one would do, since I can reconstruct
the other from what I have plus one).
I’ve failed to find either of them. I’m not sure how they were distributed, and my
searches have proven fruitless so far.
Does anyone here happen to have a trove of X11 window manager source code tucked away?
Thanks in advance,
