I remember trying both WindowMaker and AfterStep on RedHat 4.2 (or maybe 5.0). I picked AfterStep because it handled 256-color mode better. It wasn't long after that I had a card that could do 16-bit color and left AfterStep behind. Still I have a fond respect for those window managers, trying to build a desktop environment that was outside the box for the time.
