Hi Bram,
When the GUI is launched by using ":gui" from Vim or when the binary is
not named gvim (like vim.gtk in Debian), the WM_CLASS X property isn't
set correctly.
Sam Morris provided the attached patch so WM_CLASS is consistently set,
which also ensures the correct .desktop file is found when window
managers try to find the tray icon for Vim.
Cheers,
