Hi
Has anyone tried to install Window Maker Desktop Environment on Zorin OS 9?
Window Maker looks exactly like NextStep.

I read it here:

and was wondering if anyone attempted this on Zorin? ;)

I really cannot see the point of using this as OS's have outstripped the development of Window Maker which has been dead since 2007 and only recently resurrected - it talks of Mac like interface - if you want that download Zorin Educational release, or alternatively install Cairo-Dock DE or for a completely different alternative to Zorin try Deepin or Gmac Linux which is the continuation of PearLinux. ;) :D
