Subject: 109)  How do I keep a window from being resized by the user?

	Resizing the window is done through the window manager; window managers
can pay attention to the size hints your application places on the window, but 
there is no guarantee that the window manager will listen. You can try setting 
the minimum and maximum size hints to your target size and hope for the best.

Some financial models, on the other hand, yield a positive societal value for a
pack of cigarettes: smokers ... inflate group life-insurance premiums, but they
tend to die before costing society much in pensions or nursing-home care. - SA
