====""OpenBox""====
~**""OpenBox""** is a highly configurable, next generation window manager with extensive standards support. It is used as default in [[Puppy526 Puppy5.2x Lucid]], but [[JWM]] can be used instead via [[WMSwitcher]]. See [[LupufySlacko]] to add ""OpenBox"" to Puppy 5.3x Slacko.
---
~Also see OpenboxExtra packaged by [[vicmz]]. It includes [[Tint]] ([[panel]]) and themes.
---
~""OpenBox"" can have a nice translucent dock and its keyboard and mouse bindings can be configured. Mouse bindings can be important as some applications shortcut key conflict with the standard Linux ones, for example [[Inkscape]].

==Configure==
~Use "Openbox config" and "Fbpanel configuration"
