X is X - they don't make a special one for BSD!  you can install a
different window manager (besides twm).  you have a menu, just click
your left button outside a window.  to run a program, just enter it's
name (assuming it's in PATH) followed by an ampersand - in an xterm
window (ie, run_me &).

INSTALLING PORTS FROM BSD
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
1. create /usr/ports & /usr/ports/distfiles.
2. FTP the files/dirs in ./ports that you want into /usr/ports
     and the sources  in  ./distfiles  to  /usr/ports/distfiles.
     (ftp.cdrom.com, directory /pub/FreeBSD -- binary mode!)
3. download ./ports/INDEX & ./ports/Makefile into /usr/ports.
4. now go into /usr/ports/Makefile & /usr/ports/PORTGROUP/Makefile and
     comment out ports you're not installing.  then comment out the FTP site
     in /usr/ports/PORTGROUP/PORT/Makefile.  (Makefiles may require hacking!)
5. now go to /usr/ports and type "make install" and everything should go OK.
