Hello, That button is a hidden features (or annoying features if you like) in windowmaker. It is a language switch button for switching between xkb keymap. You can turn it on or off in the windowmaker preference tab #5, Miscellaneous Ergonomic Preference, with the check box on the lower right corner, Enable Language switch button on Title bar.
This feature has been in windowmaer since ~ 0.60 but still a hidden one since most windowmaker developper do not like the look except the one who put it in. I asked the maintainer to patch the config file to enable this feature for debian a while ago. Chanop Once upon a time, I heard Joey Hess say > In windowmaker 0.65.0-1, I am seeing some new oddities on the title bar. > Most annoying is a button just to the left of the minimize button > labeled with an 'E'.
