Yeah, the old OpenLook thing.  Pretty clunky.

Unless he's thinking of what you get with a more recent Solaris system,
which is CDE.  It's not a bad window manager, but it's a commercial package.
I think you can get a version for Linux too.  Similar to the WM you get with
an HP Xterm.  Seems like I saw a GPL WM that's real similar, if that's what
you're looking for.  I can't remember the name of it though.

At least he's not looking for a WM like that weird thing you get with Irix.
It's like being on a giant Mac or something.
