I am officially up & running using bspwm.

I have made some changes to my original exploration plans; shall we say, I have taken a few “diversions”. These diversions include:

• Rather than using antiX19 as my base, I have elected to use MX Linux 18.3.
  I made this change because of where the distros are in their release cycle(s) to address the new Debian 10 (Buster) transition.
• I have become quite enamored and dependent upon the use of “rofi”.
• I have elected to abandon the use of jgmenu (due to its systemd dependencies). Ergo, my rofi use.
• I have decided to run a multi-headed MX desktop (xfce4 & bspwm).  I choose my preferred desktop on the LightDM login page.

I plan to begin using bspwm on both MX & antiX. MX will use Debian stable. My antiX platform will be set such that it uses Debian (Test). I hope. The antiX desktop will be implemented shortly after antiX19 releases. My plan is to run it standardlone without the traditional antiX window managers.

My plan in the near term is to begin augmenting the eirenicon Knowledgebase with my learning(s) from this exploration effort.
