There aren't any applets; icewm's architecture is radically different from e.g. Gnome. Much of the "lightness" in icewm comes from the fact that it runs as a single process, whereas e.g. gnome runs one process per panel (and typically yet another process per applet). Everything that icewm does is built into that process. > If those do not exist, it might be easy to adapt existing applets to > make them icewm-compatible.

You should be able to hack the source; beware though that even though it is somewhat nicely structured, it does not allow for adding/removing elements at run-time. HTH -- Karl E.
