If you don't know what Xfce∞ is: it's a complete desktop environment∞ (window-manager, desktop, panel, taskbar, session-manager...), it's lightweight, it's good looking (see image), very flexible (you can use only the parts you want, move the panel where you want it...).
You can save sessions (all windows get reopened at startup) and the window-manager uses smart window positioning (i.e. new windows don't
just open in the middle of the screen, but in an unused part of it).
Just try it and see...
You can add Xfce to Puppy yourself using a dotpet or sfs file; or you can try a Puplet that comes with Xfce already installed.
- XFCE-4.4.1.SFS and XFCE-4.4.1.PET for Puppy 3.0+ FINAL∞
- XFCE-4.2.3.2 Desktop Environment (in just over 1MB...)∞
- NOP & Shard∞, puplets with Xfce already installed.
1: Puppy with Xfce. 2:NOP 3.01 default desktop & Opera. 3:NOP 3.01 tweaked appearance, Thunar filemanager & Xfce Settings Manager
4: NOP with Compiz-Fusion. 5: Shard with Compiz-Fusion. 6. Xfce tweaked to the max with metisse.
Need to update instructions for .pet & .sfs way of installing Xfce
