There's actually two bugs here. The first is the one Richard
mentioned. The second is in the man page. The man page says:
The style is specific to each window. Its name has
three dot (``.'') separated fields, which are by
default the values of the class, instance, and reci-
pient variables, with all dots changed to underscores
(``_'') and all letters converted to lowercase.
It should say "sender" not "recipient".
Bug two: zwgc/xshow.c, lines 387-391:
style = string_Concat(no_dots_downcase_var("class"),".");
style = string_Concat2(style,no_dots_downcase_var("instance"));
style = string_Concat2(style,".");
style = string_Concat2(style,no_dots_downcase_var("sender"));
string_Downcase(style);
no_dots_downcase_var() should be made to copy the return from
var_get_variable(), and the above block of code should store, then
free the return value of no_dots_downcase_var().
I'll bother making, testing, and submitting a patch if someone swears
to be in blood it will get installed in the next release after 7.6.
