How do I get the color the window manager uses for the frame border? I want
to get this color and use it to define the background of the frame. I suppose
this will set the frames background the same as that used by the panels. At least
I hope it will.

You can get the same color as the window manager's frame and the
panel by creating a control colormap segment, and setting it on
the frame after it is created. For example:
Frame frame;
Cms cms;
...
cms = (Cms)xv_create(NULL, CMS,
CMS_CONTROL_CMS, TRUE,
CMS_SIZE, CMS_CONTROL_COLORS + 1,
CMS_NAMED_COLORS, "black", NULL,
NULL);
xv_set(frame, WIN_CMS, cms, NULL);
This will set the background of the frame to be the color that
you want.
Hope this helps,
