Correct me if I am wrong here, but isn't mwm a COMMERCIAL window manager,
aka Motif Window Manager?? IF so, it has been ported but it costs $$$.
I think the FAQ had a company selling motif stuff for *BSD.
Twm is awful IMHO ;) I have hacked around fvwm to give me a quasi SGI 4d
feel, its not the best but it works.
