Matchbox (window manager)
Matchbox is a free and open source window manager for the X Window System. It is mainly intended for embedded systems and differs from most other window managers in that it only shows one window at a time. It is used by Maemo on Nokia Internet Tablets, the Neo 1973 smartphone based on Openmoko, the Vernier LabQuest handheld data acquisition device for science education, as well as on the XO-1 of the One Laptop Per Child Project.[2] It has been replaced on later OLPC software builds by Metacity.[3]

gollark: Degrees rankine forever!
gollark: 0 inches is equivalent to 0 cm and all, but that does not apply to stupider units like farenheit.
gollark: See, *that*'s a valid conversion, sort of.
gollark: 0 farenheit
gollark: *Some* stuff accepts that, some doesn't.
