Window Maker is a window manager for X11 designed to emulate the look and feel of NeXTSTEP as an environment compatible with OpenStep libraries. It has been developed from scratch since 1997 by Alfredo Kojima in C.
Installation
Window Maker can be installed from most package managers.
On Debian and Debian-based distributions:
# apt install wmakerOn Arch and Arch-based distributions, Window Maker can be only only installed with an AUR helper such as yay:
$ yay -S windowmakerOn Gentoo and Gentoo-based distributions:
# emerge -av x11-wm/windowmakerOn RHEL, Fedora and Fedora-based distributions:
# dnf install WindowMakerIf none of these work or the version is outdated, you may try to install it manually (0.96.0) by running:
$ wget https://www.windowmaker.org/pub/source/release/WindowMaker-0.96.0.tar.gz $ tar xvf WindowMaker-0.96.0.tar.gz $ cd WindowMaker-0.96.0.tar.gz $ ./configure --prefix=/usr $ make # make install
