 Since my first steps in Linux I have been a huge fan of [[http://www.enlightenment.org/|Enlightenment]] as a Window Manager. Enlightenment Development Release (DR) 17---or short E17---is now under development for more than 10 years and for the first time, Debian has binary packages in Wheezy. So I think a little stuff on E17 can't hurt :-)
-<wrap info>Update 2013-03-13</wrap> The packages for E17 have been removed from Wheezy, I think there were too many bugs. Nevertheless the information below can help setting up your E17 environment!

+<wrap info>Update 2015-05-31</wrap> The packages for E17 are available in Jessie Stable :)
+<wrap info>Update 2019-11-09</wrap> Late update, but I am not actively using Enlightenment... the 'e17' packages have been renamed to 'enlightenment' because the versions are rising steadily now. If you want to install a complete Enlightenment environment, these would be the packages to install:

 A few settings can't be done by the default tools in E17 provided by Debian. So a little tweaking might be at order. I have written a tiny script that does all my tweaks:

 #!/bin/sh

-Obviously, this sets a different keymap and repeat rates, starts [[Conky]] and loads the xmodmap so I can use the mouse tilt-wheel as described in my [[misc:xorg.conf]].

 Save this (or any other) file as a script; e.g. ''tweake.sh'' in a place where you will find is. Next, in your Settings Panel go to "Apps -> Create Launcher". Give the launcher a name, point it to your script and maybe also give it an icon.

-Well, I am still looking for an easy way to include the eweather or forecast module in Debian. If you know how, please [[wiki:about|let me know]]!
