Since Afterstep, as far as i know, is a derivative from fvwm, it should be possible to compile it. Yet, be aware that only X windows will be managed by afterstep, and no WIN32 native windows : this is especially annoying with sloppy focus : underlying X windows can steal the focus from upper WIN32 windows, and that also means that WIN32 won't obey Virtual desktop commands. If you need a full appliance for Afterstep on your desktop, give a try to litestep (WIN32 native derivative from Afterstep). See http://www.litestep.net for more information.
