WindowMaker would be your best lightweight option by far.

You can see several of the more popular WM's in action
at themes.org.

Hi,

because
its just soooo much easier.
Good Luck,
Mike

The question, stated like that, has no answer, because KDE is not a window
manager, it only *has* one (KWM).

To make things more complicated, Window Maker is KDE aware, and works as
a dropin replacement for KDE's default window manager, KWM.

So, what's lighter, WM, E or KWM? Probably WM.

Is there something *lighter*? Yes. I would suggest blackbox, at
http://blackbox.wiw.org, which is quite nice, very light, and is also KDE
aware.

I dont know about Enlightenment but KDE is a PIG compared to Windowmaker,
in terms of memory usage anyway...

E is also a hog.... the stock Window Maker is probably your best "bang for
the buck" WM...
