JWM - specific
This is how to override default settings in your JWM configuration.
Your gtkdialog gui must be called with the --class parameter
gtkdialog --class=APPLET -f myfile
Then this code must be in your jwm configuration file - $HOME/.jwmrc (to be set permanently, it must be added to /etc/xdg/templates/_root_.jwmrc)
<Group> <Class>APPLET</Class> <Option>nolist</Option> <Option>sticky</Option> <Option>noborder</Option> <Option>layer:above</Option>
- nolist does avoid your app showing up in the taskbar.
- sticky shows your app on all desktops.
- noborder is equal to the gtkdialog attribute <window decorated="false">.
- layer:n defines if other windows should cover your app, or if it should be on top. below, normal or above.
