WM_WINDOW_ROLE is for uniquely identifying windows for session management. I don't think they are doing the right thing. Taking another look at this from the user perspective, you have "gaim" windows, then you have "buddy list" or "conversation" windows. You don't need to resort to a third level of identification of your windows. -- Dan Espen E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
