Says Gus, still happily using WindowMaker :)
I must admit, that in amongst my rants on the topic of "consistent look and
feel", I have found use for per-window decorations - even to the point of
using sub-themes. I use the border-only MicroGUI decoration for my netscape
windows (which gives insight into my habit of stuffing up <title> tags!)

X resources *are* cool. Is there some kind of (slap me if this sounds
backwards) GUI tool that will query an apps X resources and allow
modification? I remember some discussion regarding where to find an apps X
resources from a couple of weeks ago...

Half of it! I want to hear someone with an opposing view who can back it up
well. I agree with you too much. :)
