Other Awesome Installation Instructions

Hello!

I just discovered FreeBSD this week, and I have been experimenting with the different desktop environments and window managers. I have been able to get the three listed in the handbook to work (GNOME, KDE, Xfce), however, I can't seem to find instructions for Awesome. Is anyone able to go over the installation?

Thank you,

You can literally do the same steps mentioned in the handbook for XFCE but replace all instances of "xfce4" with "awesome".
You may enjoy PC-BSD (http://www.pcbsd.org/) if you are wanting to get to know FreeBSD's Desktop capabilities. You can simply install whatever WMs you like and they'll automatically be added as a choice to your login screen.
Welcome to FreeBSD.
