    [new] CDE

Hi.

First draft at porting CDE.
It's still rough around the edges and very slightly tested.
I wouldn't use is as a daily driver, it's old unsecure code but it's fun if you
want to bring back memories.

Comment:
Common Desktop Environment

Description:
CDE - The Common Desktop Environment is X Windows desktop environment that was
commonly used on commercial UNIX variants such as Sun Solaris, HP-UX and IBM
AIX. Developed between 1993 and 1999, it has now been released under an Open
Source licence by The Open Group.

It supposedly requires ksh93 but so far our own ksh seems sufficient (maybe I am
missing sth).
Don't hesitate to play with it and propose fixes and improvements.
