Window Maker looks alien to me as a Unix user. CDE is good, but I like TWM which is the default window manager in Slackware (if you want someting more Windows-like, you can switch to MWM).


I used WindowMaker from 1997 until about 2005, so it doesn't look too foreign to me. I kind of want to try it again to see how it holds up, but perhaps that kind of desktop is best left in my memories.


NextStep, where WindowMaker derivated, is also a Unix-like OS. For me it perfectly fits to Unix. But yeah, this a a matter of taste of course. :-)
