X11, Window Managers The Beryl project has won a lot of press time so far with its impressive tricks -- even more than its slower-evolving daddy, Compiz. There are several lose ends to Beryl's core engine and incompatibilities with existing applications or technologies. However, something that really put off a lot of people when they try Beryl is its dreadful settings manager.

A searchbar is NOT something the falls under the scope of a window manager. Unless you are talking about a search panel within the settings manager. If that's the case you need to go back and take a closer look: there already is one.

I don't see what's wrong with the settings manager. The new design looks great and has a very logical layout. If you don't like it you're always welcome to go back to windows/mac.

I must be missing something because I don't see a searchbar here. I'm thinking of something like this: http://www.mymacblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/05/system-prefs-sp...
