Olwm, if I understand what's going on, uses the same icon format that sunview used. All other X window manager's that I'm aware of, use the X11 bitmap format. So my question is, how do I make a window use an X bitmap as it's icon? It's really simple with twm, you just put the lines in you .twmrc Icons { "xterm" "xterm.icon" "emacs" "gemacs.icon" } Is there an undocumented resource that does this? I really like the look and feel of openlook, but I'm getting awfully frustrated with the lack of customization features. Hayden Schultz MIT Lincoln Lab haydens@juliet.ll.mit.edu
