I'd much rather more work was done to look into the following idiom: Style (name=foo, class=Foo) Stick ... Which currently has its own branch in the FVWM CVS, but obviously breaks any compatibility with the way current style lines are parsed. The above is something I'd prefer to see, above and beyond changing the style states for different windows. -- Thomas Adam -- "If I were a witch's hat, sitting on her head like a paraffin stove, I'd fly away and be a bat." -- Incredible String Band.
