Martin Rudalics has a good grasp on probing Emacs and X. Another ctwm feature request would be for xterm to remember original size and full/maximized window size toggle that persists across ctwm restart. The ctwm mailing list archive was not available when I looked so I didn't ask upstream over there. ctwm restart is probably a rare event after fixed customization so ctwm-dev attention would be better spent on other priorities. -- vl
