I may be mistaken but AFAIK the Install script does
the sequence "configure; make; make install" so you
don't have to run it.

The file is located in util/wmaker.inst
It appears there after you do "make".
If you change to the util directory and
you do not find the file there you can 
try make in the directory - it should
regenerate the file.

If this does not work - check out the
wmaker.inst.in file. It is a source for
the wmaker.inst. All you have to do is
to change some variables and adjust
directories.

To start the WM you should change the
contents of your ~/.xinitrc to contain
the line :
	exec /usr/local/bin/wmaker
and this should work. This is what the
script does besides creation of
directories in ~/GNUstep.

I hope this helps,
Albert
