Don't know if it is helpful or not, but xprop provides the following for wbar

``````````````
_ICEWM_TRAY(CARDINAL) = 0
_WIN_WORKSPACE(CARDINAL) = 0
WM_STATE(WM_STATE):
                window state: Normal
                icon window: 0x0
_WIN_STATE(CARDINAL) = 1, 63
_WIN_LAYER(CARDINAL) = 2
_NET_WM_DESKTOP(CARDINAL) = 0
_MOTIF_WM_HINTS(_MOTIF_WM_HINTS) = 0x2, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0
_NET_WM_STATE(ATOM) = _NET_WM_STATE_SKIP_TASKBAR, _NET_WM_STATE_BELOW
_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE(ATOM) = _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DOCK
WM_NAME(STRING) = "wbar"
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "wbar", "wbar"
WM_PROTOCOLS(ATOM): protocols  WM_DELETE_WINDOW
