Summary: Improve implementation of constructors

Initial Comment:
I have noticed that some assignments are used in the constructor bodies.

Examples:

http://icewm.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/icewm/icewm-1.2/src/yapp.cc?revision=1.59&view=markup
http://icewm.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/icewm/icewm-1.2/src/ytimer.cc?revision=1.2&view=markup

The recommended way for performing efficient construction is to use the initialisation list.
