I was looking for an alternate window manager for OpenDarwin. 
I’ve been using twm and it is just too minimal for me.  I started
to see if I could get Gnome from Darwinports, but the installation
failed when trying to install Perl 5.8 … which I already have.

I started to look at AfterStep, and then saw mention of WindowMaker in
an article that claimed a complete successful installation using
Darwinports.  So I started the installation hours ago and it is
slowly bringing down the various dependancies, building, and installing
them.  I’m going to give this a try … and then I found a few
alternate directions.

One thing that I hadn’t thought of is that the KDE environment is
‘stronger’ in this market with the Apple use of KDE components. 
I’ll see what I can do with KDE, after I complete my experiment with
WindowMaker.
