# About the release v3.3
Add Console Display Manager :)
New setup-tuxhat script now call Setup-Tuxhat Main Menu Setup 
Updated Arch Based :D
Clean up the ISO reduce it by 2 mb
Tux Hat Linux is a 64 bit Arch Linux Distributions.
Starting from v3.2 will have Awesomewm, OpenMotif, and DWM window manager.
DWM 6.0 is something new I added.
DWM 6.0, is a very lightweight WM, and honestly didn't took more than 2mb on the iso image :P this WM is very flexable. 
DWM 6.0 is also all in C, and can be edit a header config.h file, 
and make and make install clean.  The config.h is small, simple to edit. it's basic C programming, nothing to fancy :P
and it's a UNIX program in everyway.
I done a basic setup and have some nice key binding setup for the live ISO. 
Also it is using MODKEY "alt" aka Mod1 key by default, as i believe people with ibm keyboard without a windows key ... 
Means they are a UNIX nerd, meaning DWM 6.0 will fit those type of people.  I like Awesomewm, as it is much inspired by DWM.
They are both written in C.  Awesomewm just use a LUA framework, as DWM is just standard C.
