tags 356948 + help retitle 356948 stumpwm: clarify how to start this WM in the README.Debian thanks Hello! For d-d: I'd like a more general advice about the user request, which I'm quite reluctant to accomplish. For all: please honor the R-T and M-F-T headers (no need to cc: me).

The debian/control::Description reads: [...] From "StumpWM is a window manager written entirely in Common Lisp" it suggests, that is is just another window manager only that the host language is common lisp.
Well, as I already explained in my previous reply [1], you need a specific background in Common Lisp to use this WM. Moreover, the package section is specifically set to "devel" and not "x11" as most of the other WMs.
Something is not connecting here.
- Aa per you explanation, the the sescription string should differentiate stumpwm from the other regular "window managers" by saing that this one is for only people that understand how to use it with common lisp. [...] Currently
- Description does not suggest anything to be different from standard WM - README* lacks information for anyone else but CL-knowledgeable.
I think that this is a problem not only for stumpwm, but for all the Common Lisp software.
Please don't go away, before we can improve this :-)
I'm still here, just asking more help from the fellow developers ;-) Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=356948;msg=10
