Hi,

I guess that it depends what you want them to be :)

There are 3 types of window that you can construct:
'toplevel', 'dialog' and 'popup' and I think that you know which of these
you want. The type value determines how this widget will interact with the
window manager but I don't know X well enough to know the effects.

Don't add() them unless you want them to appear as part of another
window.
