Re: [SF] xconsole mystery

Mihai> Is this something you are looking for?

Not really, see the upstream articles in this thread.  xconsole works
just fine and it is handled correctly by sawfish, except in this one
case, when both of the following applies:

1/ it is not mapped while sawfish is running, but already exists when
sawfish starts.

2/ for reasons unknown, X sets the WM_STATE hint of the xconsole
window to Iconified.

So, part of the weirdness is on the X side; the sawfish problem is
that even if the xconsole window is  Matched and set to Iconify: No,
it is still iconified by sawfish when sawfish starts.
