Windowmaker is a window maker. It's called 'Window Maker' and is an X11 
window manager. It's part of a GUI. You won_t be very lucky to run a 
window manager just by itsself. You won_t be very lucky run a GUI 
without a window manager either. KDE, GNOME and X are GUI's that 
supposedly all use window managers.
