NOTE (2009): links below are broken, but the latest source package for the W Window system on the main site contains all the clients.

Available W clients

• WBiff, informs you about incoming mail.
• WClock, an analog clock.
• WEyes, eyes that follow the pointer.
• WGone, locks the screen while you're away.
• WLoad, performance monitor for your computer.
• WSaver, a screen saver.
• WSetbg, loads an IMG to the screen background.
• WStatus, gives information about the server.
• WTerm, a console window.
• WAnt, an ant 'simulator' (mine).
• WApfel, a simple Mandelbrot generator.
• WDragon, a Mah-jongg tile game for W.
• WLife, plays The Game of Life on pixels set with the mouse.
• WMines, a minesweeper game `clone' (mine).
• WPuzzle, a 'sliding' puzzle game of numbers or of a specified IMG.
• WReversi, a reversi (Othello) game.
• WSolitaire, a board game (mine).
• WButtons, a demo program.
• WEngine, a server performance meter ('engine' RPMs).
• WFontdemo, shows the available W fonts.
• WLines, a demo program.
• WPerfmon, checks the performance of your W server.
• Wscroll, a demo program.

• WJewel, a columns game clone (image). 9K
• Daleks, a robots game clone. 4K
• Lsys, an L-system parser. 5K
• FLI / FLC Player, a monochrome W port of a PC Linux / SVGAlib program with some additions/deletions. 13K
• A couple of W toolkit widgets (in chronological order): getstring, listbox, filesel, edittext, range, dial, arrow, select, menu, popup. Most are already in the Wt package. Getstring and edittext implement scrolling and cut/copy/paste.
• WEdit, a simple text editor with fixed line width. Contains some goodies like good copy/paste support, auto-indent, word wrap, paragraph format, search/replace and abbreviation expansion. Needs Wt. 38K
• WStart, a program launch bar with nested popups (corresponding directory is (re-)read when popup is opened. Programs may have an icon and options file. Needs Wt. 22K
• WChat, a program for discussing with others over the network. Needs Wt. 7K
• Some two-player games / networked board games can be found from my games page. Most of them work also with other user interfaces (curses) besides W/Wt.
• Basic W1R4 W Library functionality in Python. There's also Python version of my L-system parser which can output the grammar also either into W window or POV scene.
• A NetHack `graphics' font. Playing NetHack in a window takes 2.5MB of memory though so you'd better have more than 4MB altogether :-).

Incomplete projects:

• Wlib functionality on top of Xlib. There aren't that many free toolkits available for X, so W2Xlib + Wt might be a welcome addition even if it doesn't use colors and backing store takes a bit of memory. Last update: 10/97.
• WPlayer, a (ATM 8-bit, mono) sample editor that uses Kay Römer's MiNT audio device for sound output. Needs Wt. Last update: 10/97. 12K (image)
• A simple drawing program. Currently it's main use is testing out the server graphics functionality :-). Buggy, needs Wt. Last update: 10/97. 16K

I cannot guarantee that my programs work on any given W window system. Although I have compiled and tested them on Atari MiNT, they should work with normal GCC / Linux-alike setups. The W/Wt version which they need might differ more though; My own version, latest W mailing-list version or the previous release, depending on when I have last touched the program code (check out the dates). Older programs should generally work with newer W/Wt versions.
