Actually, it is trivial to work around. There are two ways to make a window omnipresent in wmaker. One involves bringing up the window's "Attributes" screen and selecting omnipresent in there. This is what triggers the bug. But there's another, even easier way to make windows omnipresent that does not trigger this bug. In the window's title-bar menu, select Options -> Omnipresent. The window now becomes omnipresent and the CPU usage remains sane. I didn't even realize there was a bug until just now. I'd been using the second way of making windows omnipresent since wmaker 0.2.something and never even realized that the problem existed. noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
