This *really* needs to be in the FAQ and README.

I tweaked the Xastir.org main page a bit:

*) Added:  "(also see the "FAQ" link below)" after the Installation
Notes link.

*) Moved the "Older Sourceforge Docs" stuff lower, calling it "Text
docs distributed with Xastir:" and listing the links there instead
of going off to the old Sourceforge docs page.  Those all link the
latest-latest CVS versions of the text pages.

*) Moved the old manual link right below the text docs link.


Separate:  Added the "compiz" question/answer to the FAQ.


Here's an interesting tidbit about another application with this
problem.  A workaround is posted in the second message of the
thread:

Here's the important text:

----------------------------------------
"I have found a workaround: defining MinWidth and MinHeight in
.Xdefaults

    nedit*MinWidth: 200
    nedit*MinHeight: 100"
----------------------------------------

As you mentioned we'd replace "nedit" with Xastir's resource name.
This should be specified in the Xastir code instead of in .Xdefaults
so people wouldn't have to deal with it.

We can add MinWidth/MinHeight to each dialog with the problem, or
probably specify defaults at the top of main.c:main() in the big
string containing other defaults, something like:

    "*MinWidth: 200\n\
    *MinHeight: 100\n",

One would have to play around on a system displaying the problem to
come up with the exact syntax which would work, or know much more
about resource strings than I currently do!
