I have used the following configuration file:

Dtlogin*altDtsIncrement:        True

Dtlogin*altDtName:      Window Maker
Dtlogin*altDtKey:       /usr/bin/wmaker
Dtlogin*altDtStart:     /etc/dt/config/Xsession.windowmaker
Dtlogin*altDtLogo:     /usr/share/WindowMaker/Icons/GNUstep.xpm

named 0300.session under /etc/dt/config/C/Xresources.d

altDtKey is any file that is present when the window manager is 
installed (here the executable),

altDtStart the startup script

and /etc/dt/config/Xsession.windowmaker

contains

#!/bin/ksh

WINDOW_MANAGER=/usr/bin/wmaker

export WINDOW_MANAGER

exec /usr/bin/wmaker

It is also possible to stop the computer by defining a session with a 
script that executes

shutdown -h now instead of a window manager. If the computer accepts 
suspend to disk,

it can be also  suspended with echo disk >/sys/power/state.
