My first hint would be to look through the documentation a little more
closely. libPropList.tar.gz is located in the root of the Window Maker
distribution source tree. Untar libproplist, compile and install it so that the it
will be available to compile Window Maker.

2.17 How do I fix an error such as "libwraster.so.1: cannot open shared
object file" ?
----------------------------------
Like most software using GNU autoconf, Window Maker by default will install
under the /usr/local prefix. This has the repercussion on many systems that
the libraries that are part of Window Maker will be installed in
/usr/local/lib, which is usually not in the default system LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
This is why the library cannot be found.
Under Linux, you will need to list this directory in /etc/ld.so.conf and
run /sbin/ldconfig. Both these operations will need to be performed as the
superuser.
Under BSD, as the superuser you will need to run
ldconfig -m /usr/local/lib
which will merge this directory into the system library path.
If the problem persists, you may be able to use "ldd" to track down why the
library cannot be loaded (it will print a list of dynamic objects used by
the executable or library listed on the command line, and where it is
expecting to find it).

8.3 How do I make a Theme?
----------------------------------
Please see the theme-HOWTO at http://wm.current.nu/themes/theme-HOWTO.html
for details, here is a short summary. Also, read the README.themes file
included with the Window Maker distribution in the WindowMaker/ directory.
In this walk-through when I use WindowMaker/, it can refer to the global
/usr/local/share/WindowMaker/ directory or the users own
~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/ directory.
To make a Theme.tar.gz, these are the steps I take:
1.Optionally create a README for your theme in WindowMaker/, call it
something like "ThemeName.txt"
2.Use the following command to add the Theme files to your .tar file.
tar cvf ThemeName.tar ThemeName.txt Themes/ThemeName
Backgrounds/ThemeNameBG.jpg Backgrounds/ThemeNameTile.xpm
You can add as many more images as you need from the
appropriate directories under WindowMaker/ following that general
idea. You can even optionally add an IconSets/ThemeName.iconset and
it's associated icons to your theme in the same manner. This should
be stated in your README if you decide to include these.
3.Then gzip your .tar file to make your ThemeName.tar.gz file with this
command:
gzip -9 ThemeName.tar
4.Now give it to your friends!
There is a neat little file called README.themes distributed with Window
Maker that explains everything in intricate detail. You can also read
