Window Maker 0.51.1 should be GNOME compliant --- at least, that's
what I'm running, and everything seems to work.

This (at least, gnibbles) is my fault.  The window isn't resizable
because the pixmaps are of a fixed size, and the levels are of a fixed
size, ergo the window is of a fixed size.  Many gnome games set their
policy to non resizable for precisely this reason.  I guess gnibbles
is among the largest of all of these.  It's easy to forget about
things like that at 1280x1024, I guess.  What resolution are you
running?  Is it larger than the screen?

One possible solution is to get an alternate set of tiles, smaller
than 10x10 resolution --- but I'm not enough of an artist to draw
these (I did the original 10x10's by hand in vi...).  This would
provide a solution for low res use.

Anyway, apps like gnumeric, gnomecal, etc, should have the resizebar
at the bottom.
