In slackware there is a tool called xwmconfig and it will use ncurses to 
give you a list of available WMs and the ability to set the .xinitrc file 
for the user that runs xwmconfig. I don't know if this tool is specific to 
slack.
Of course Zman's advice is the better way to go, you'll learn more.
