It simply has 2D borders. It looks a bit like a wire frame around
the windows. You can get the same effect if you choose sh/hi
colours on the border appropriately, e.g.
bg = black
sh = white
hi = white

How about this enhancement to conditional commands:
Next (conditions) { false-action } true-action
This would allow an "else" case in all conditional commands
without the need to store a return code of these commands. For
example:
AddToFunc ToggleWindow
+ I Next ($0) { Exec $0 } Close

AddToFunc Deiconify-Raise-Focus
+ I Iconify Off
+ I Raise
+ I Focus
AddToFunc "Deiconify-or-Raise-or-Iconify"
+ I Current (Raised, !Iconic) { Deiconify-Raise-Focus } Iconify on
