Do like this:
$ whereis sawfish
sawfish: /usr/ports/x11-wm/sawfish
$ cat /usr/ports/x11-wm/sawfish/pkg-descr
Lisp configurable window manager
WWW: http://sawmill.sourceforge.net/
Which should have the FM or tell you where to find it.
Then maybe
$ locate sawfish
and
$ cat /usr/ports/x11-wm/sawfish/pkg-plist
From the latter, you'll see:
1) whether it comes with some samples
2) That it comes with "info" system help files (which
probably answers most of your other questions).
3) A bunch of lisp files for you to modify.
I'll guess it has a lisp interpreter built into it, since they
can be small enough for that. The "info" thing should tell
you where to put lisp files for it to interpret/compile.
