I have a client (a hacked version of xgif) that I want to be able to
specify (on its command line) if it should appear without a "decoration"
(ttle bar, etc.).

I currently do this by calling XSetClassHint using the name "NOdeco"
if the program is called with a "-nd" flag.  Then I use an appropriate
resource item in .Xdefaults.

This seems to work just fine with mwm, but I smells like a kludge.

Is there a more elegant/standardized way to do the same thing?
