Having playing around with setting up windows the old fashioned way (program submitted in the future)

I came across this bug (feature)!

try this first

WM_BORDER 25, 1026

and even edged 3d type border

now try this

WM_BORDER 0,1026



Enjoy, Lee
He he, nice one!

And the 3D borders available with WM_BORDER in the new window manager don't get used that much after Marcel went to all the hard work to implement them.

I remember having fun and games with "unexpected results" many years ago on a Spectrum - drawing arcs, I think, which resulted in Spirograph-style shapes if you used extreme values of the angle (third) parameter of a Spectrum DRAW command. IIRC, it calculated several dots on the 'arc' and tried to join them with straight lines. But this got a bit out of hand if you used very large values for the angle!
