Yah, that makes sense. I thought that FVWM was doing something in its virtual page / desk code that would identify windows as "off screen" and therefore eligible for memory reclaimation. So, if we could stop marking windows as being off screen and/or triggering X to unmap them when the user changes pages / desks, that would be ideal! Thoughts? -jesse
