I'm using WindowMaker 0.60.0 at the moment compiled with Gnome Support.
It mostly works except that I cannot get it to pass root menu clicks
onto gmc. I've disabled Dock and Clip and use panel instead. After
fiddling with the attributes menu on various applications, I eventually
added "*" = {NoAppIcon = Yes;}; to ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WMWindowAttributes
to disable all application icons. The only other annoying thing  I can't
get round is applications maximizing past panel.
