- owyn 16y agoOld school! Back in the 90's I worked with someone who still used NEWS as his desktop window manager (it was written in postscript...)

- arethuza 16y agoI used HyperNeWS for a few years and it was most certainly mostly written in PostScript - pretty much a work of genius by Arthur van Hoff before he joined Sun and worked on Java. NeWS windows were objects in PostScript - I can remember logging into colleagues NeWS servers using psh and doing things like setting the CTM for a window to rotate it by a few degrees...
