We hope this software collection suits your needs.
Light uses an old-school approach to configurations: plain text files.
For best results, you need to get used to editing those.

As an example, learn about xombrero, a speedy, keyboard-friendly Internet browser, by studying "~/.xombrero.conf". Among other things, you will see that it has a fixed startup geometry which you can specify, as well as an option to choose your default search provider.

Configuration files for IceWM are found in "~/.icewm/".
Some of the most common tweaks are available by clicking:
Menu -> IceWM -> Quickconfig

Desktop appearance settings are defined in "~/.gtkrc-2.0".

To find and add new applications, find Gslapt on your system menu.
Make it a habit to click the "Update" button before searching or installing.
After making changes, click: Menu -> IceWM -> Make Menu.

The network manager "WICD" may need configuration for use with wi-fi.
Open preferences and type in the name of the wireless interface.
