Re: Window identifiers in the apps file

Hiho,
you are correct in the statement that its not in the current manpage - 
there is however the development manpage (as in the manpage is under 
development :)), where this is better explained.
You can get this manual here: http://www.asenchi.com/misc/newfluxman.txt
To make it short - you want to look into the class=foo option in the 
apps file :)
