I gzipped it to save bandwidth. But you can anyway retrieve it at:

thanks but my Emacs doe snot read that :-( are you sure it is a text file?
Unfortunately the main weak point of sawfish is the lack of exhaustive/complete documentation,
yes, you are right
Librep (the lisp dialect adopted by sawfish) is a combination of Emacs Lisp and Scheme, so if you know one of these it shouldn't be a big problem to start to hack. But if you are a lisp newbie, it's very difficult to understand the very terse librep/sawfish documentation.
i thought it is written in GUILE scheme only.
Apart from this, I regard sawfish still the best window manager, because of its adoption of a complete programming language (and because I like lisp).
same here :-)
Scwm (http://scwm.sourceforge.net/) was cool too, it adopted Scheme as the basic language but it seems dead since 2000.
i did not know that earlier. i chose SCWM earlier & tried to install it, met with a compile error, found ZERO documentation, abandoned it. Dale, on SCWM mailing list, told me that he is working on it to bring it up with GUILE 1.8.x but he doe s not promise any release for now.
Ooops... I've been using that signature for months, thanks for make me aware of it ;-).
