Window Managers
The Window Manager is the layer between X windows and the desktop environment. Window managers (WM) control the placement & appearance of windows. The default in Puppy is JWM is very light and basic but effective. If you imagine a computer system as a series of layers it would look something like this:
Hardware < Operating System < Window System < Window Manager < Desktop Environment
for Puppy the default is JWM or OpenBox:
Hardware < Linux < X Windows < JWM or OpenBox
(JWM or OpenBox also act as the Desktop Environment.)
