Try xfce, see http://www.xfce.org/ for info. It's in the ports. It claims to 
be a desktop environment, personally I'd call it a window manager (what's the 
difference?).

But it's real small if you already have GTK, simple to configure either by 
GUI or editing a text file, looks like HP-VUE or CDE. Fast, clean, complete, 
and everything works. If I could only have one, this is it.
