Re: Windows Manager


Thanks Roman!

Other question...

There is any way to hide de X window ?
That is, I want launch the remote program from
a dos command line (cmd.exe) via ssh and I want
see only the windows of this program and not the
X main window...
Can I make this?

Thanks for the help!  Martín.
