I had been using AWN, but I had noticed some inconsistencies. Can't quite describe them now, but I switched to Cairo...and find that it is so highly customizable and great looking! Thanks again for showing us these choices...and helping me with my new flashy, helpful dock. Thanks for this collective review. I had been using AWN, but I had noticed some inconsistencies.

There doesn't seems to have much documentation for it. Is there any place where I can find more information about 9menu? Thanks for the recommendation.

Easy to install, faster than sin, less intrusive. Best of all, it isn't hideous like all these are. Easy to set up as a panel icon ...only shows up when you need it. Add a 9menu to your right click menu. You could conceivably replace all Desktop detritus with 9menus. Easier to configure than fluxbox menus as well and can be used to launch scripts or other 9menus. Possibilities are infinite yet tasteful. Did I mention no ugly icons? Why do all Desktops have to look glassy and transparent? Anyway ...if you like speed, simplicity and non-intrusive-ness you may wish to take a peek at 9menu. Bubnoff 9menu destroys all of these right out of the starting gate.

Mmm.... ok; the first three paragraphs made no sense at all in this. After reading the whole page, it made less sense! What kind of dock is this about? I opened this up thinking about docking stations, and the relevency of MacOS bigotry for their proprietary docking! Umbflast forscheckt! It reads more like a tirade from Finnegan's Wake than a technical article... [No footnote for James Joyce?] I am is first osterp!
