I'm tempted to give vermaden's FreeBSD Desktop Series a try, but with x11-wm/cwm instead of x11-wm/openbox as windows manager.
I thought about the necessity of a status bar, but I can't really imagine having none and if only for date/time and network info. Having done some reading sticking to x11/dzen2 or vetelko/termbar may be the way to go.
Any idea what the easiest solution is to show VPN info in the status bar (using OpenVPN to connect to a VPN provider; name of used VPN node -> could be determined from the name of the used OpenVPN config file, IP address / gateway or just VPN on/off could be plausible things to be displayed)? I want to go for vermaden's network.sh script based approach for network management enhanced with added VPN management.
Thoughts about the use of x11-wm/cwm in general and the fact that the port uses the portable version of Leah Neukirchen which is based on version 6.3 dated with May 2018?
