From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'll certainly try fluxbox. What is i3 and fluxbox configured in?
i3 is configured in it's own configuration language thing which I personally find very easy to use and understand. Fluxbox on the other hand is, I believe, configured through a GUI though I've never used it so don't take my word on that. Btw awesomewm is written in Lua not Python. Didn't realize my mistake until just now.
