from the Web page:
evilwm is a minimalist window manager for X. The name evil
came from Stuart 'Stuii' Ford, who reckons any window
manager I use has to be evil and masochistic. This is not
the case at all, but I liked the name.
It features movement, killing, lowering, raising, and moving windows
by keyboard control. It supports virtual desktops.

Muffin is a minimal X window manager aimed at nontechnical users and is
designed to integrate well with the GNOME desktop. Muffin lacks some
features that may be expected by traditional UNIX or other technical
users; these users may want to investigate other available window man-
agers for use with GNOME or standalone.

Openbox is a highly configurable, next generation window manager with
extensive standards support.
Openbox lets you bring the latest applications outside of a full desktop
environment. Most modern applications have been written with GNOME and KDE
in mind. With support for the latest freedesktop.org standards, as well as
careful adherence to previous standards, Openbox provides an environment
where applications work the way they were designed to.
Openbox is a highly configurable window manager. It allows you to change
almost every aspect of how you interact with your desktop and invent
completely new ways to use and control it. It can be like a video game for
controlling windows. But Openbox can also be kept extremely simple, as it is
in the default setup, meaning that it can suit just about anybody. Openbox
gives you control without making you do everything.
Openbox makes desktop environments better. By running Openbox inside the
GNOME or K desktop environments, you can combine their ease and
functionality with the power of Openbox. Your desktop becomes cleaner and
faster, and is in your control, when you use Openbox.
