Does anyone know if there's a way to set the colour of the entire
window border on an individual window basis?

For eaxmple, under SunView one can start a shelltool with a red border using

	shelltool -Wf 255 0 0
	
However the same command under OpenLook sets the text to red and doesn't
affect the border at all.

Placing 'OpenWindows.WindowColor:	red' in my .Xdefaults file makes
all window borders red.

Hence I would have thought that

	shelltool -default OpenWindows.WindowColor red

would set the border colour on an individual window, but this only
sets the colour of the scroll bar of the new window.

Any input would be welcome.
