Now you must read this: http://advogato.org/article/248.html

Especially the clueless rant from 'cmm', who manages to diss one of the
cornerstones of Unix philosophy, calling it "completely nuts".

I use Sawfish too, on my main machine. It's thin, not lacking in features,
infinitely customisable (it's the Emacs of window managers), and very perky
with the Eazel-developed Crux theme. ;)

I'm running WindowMaker on the new SPARC, but only to play with... and to
remember Uni, when every other poor sod was running fvwm! ;) lwm will go on
soon. One click, and I have a terminal, plus I use the very cool minimal
menu that Elliott wrote to go with it.

Finally, take a peek at this:
