Again after fooling with the resource files for mwm I am at the point where I do not fear telling upper management to shove mwm...And over such a minor detail at that... First a thought: I have used many window managers and mwm is the only one that has puts me off so badly... I wonder if the author(s) of mwm use a different window manager and only run mwm for testing??? Enough garbage, or nobody will answer my question... I want to make icons line up at the bottom left of my screen. Simple. I want to no gaps when I iconify a window. Apparently impossible. I got them to line up. I de-iconify them and iconify a window who's icon was to the right. It appears just where it used to be and doesn't tippy toe on down to the left like I want it to. (Somehow I get the feeling that the same scum who design HPUX design mwm...) Is it possible to get mwm to have left gravity when iconifying? Al

Why don't you get the source and add the option you'd like? > Is it possible to get mwm to have left gravity when iconifying? Now why couldn't you have just said that without all of the insults?
