From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hm. That's good. I wonder if it could be compiled to use no toolkit, but only rely on server-side decos.

Oh well. I'll give it a try.

EDIT: We'll it, indeed, can be compiled without toolkit. Nice. Strangely it defaulted to US keyboard layout. While all other programs do respect my system keyboard layout setting.
