Description Matthew Miller 2001-10-12 02:07:03 UTC
Not for this RHL release, but consider for the next one. 

Recent versions of WindowMaker have the annoying habit of attempting to
keep track of the number of instances of a given app you have open, and
ones beyond the first get numbered [1] [2] [3] etc. in their titlebars and
icons. This *really* detracts from the nice clean look and feel, and it's
pointless anyways as it doesn't really do a very good job. Luckily, there's
a patch that fixes this:

Please consider applying this. Thanks!

Have a look at WindowMaker-0.80.1-3 in rawhide
I've been assured by the WM folks that the icin behaviour in that rawhide
package is correct.
