Lightweight window manager

Hi folks,

BLFS 6.1

I'm going to install "Window Maker" as desktop window manager
http://www.windowmaker.org

It is a lightweight window manager. Has any folk tried this package before? What is your comment?

TIA

B.R.

Its a good WM, but I am not too keen on it (a personal thing). I like enlightenment and fluxbox.

Don't cross post! It gets hard for people to follow the discussion if you do and it's against LQ rules.

Please do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Picking the most relevant forum and posting it once there makes it easier for other members to help you and keeps the discussion all in one place.
