There are also two important patches that come with the WindowMaker

I went ahead and installed WindowMaker "naked," and it seems to be
running fine. Another learning curve, however. When you speak of the
patches "coming with the WindowMaker distribution," do you mean that
they're in the un-tarred directory somewhere? If not, would you please
supply a link to them?
Yes, there is a contrib/ directory in the toplevel source directory. It has a
file called single_click.diff which activates the "single click" preference
(it adds an option to the WPrefs "miscellaneous" menu (the one at the very
rightmost end of the icon bar under WPrefs) that is called "Launch
applications and restore windows with a single click" which I find very
helpful, because normally, a "single click" does nothing at all... so no
functionality is lost by enabling "single-click" (unlike in File Managers,
where single-click is used to select, and double-click normally is used to
"launch").
I couldn't get this patch to install. Of course, it may have been the
other installation and configuration problems I was having--these are
detailed in another thread. From the top level of the source tree, I used:
patch -Np[0-2] contrib/single_click.diff
They all failed. The last time I manually entered the "file to be
patched" as patch walked through the patch file. How did you install it?
