Thanks for the reply.

How do I get libixp running with wmii? I've done a quick search and
rummaged through the Debian package to come up empty.

I've since hubed to dwm and I'm quite happy. I'll relay my queries
(if any) about it to the less appropriate dwm discord server from now on.

I am not too overjoyed about recompiling it for changes. I like Debian
packages and I am fine with using ~/.dotfiles. All I need is one
screened uxterm to run in one frame/worktab/window/portal/whatever and
Firefox in another.

I do appreciate dwm's 10kloc bare style.

Best wishes,
