I've been checking every couple of months for the past 3 years hoping someday I'll see a new NsCDE commit. I was starting to accept there never would be one. But now there is! I almost started crying when I saw it, I have literally had dreams about this day.

Not so Common Desktop Environment (NsCDE).

Didn't know what this was till I clicked, so posting for others.

The author would like to apologize for bad English in the docs. A rand() function putting (the, a, an) in articles would probably be more accurate.

The developer has an excellent sense of humor.

Ugh I want it but I just know I'm going to have difficulties with some niche video game or something and there won't be any preexisting solutions

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.
