I've used blackbox with success. I know fluxbox works too. I think I
am currently using fluxbox.

Word processing might be difficult. I believe gtk1 apps will build,
but not gtk2. I might have some packages you can download depending on
what level of NetBSD you are on.

I just use pico if I want something that resembles a "real" word
processor. But that's rare, normally I just use vi.
