WindowMaker dockapps are graphical applications fitting in a 64x64 tile.
they can work in WindowMaker or any other window manager which can handle
WindowMaker style dockapps. The project pywmdockapps contains a Python
library -wmdocklib- enabling quick development of your own dockapps plus a

not work at all, may set your computer in flames, even though this is not

guarantee for better functioning.

<p class="newstext">radically restyled the initialation of the xpm. the
three parts of which it is composed (drawing area, patterns, charset) are
now one on top of the other. the client application does not need take care
of making the three components of equal width nor of any specific length:
it's the library fixing and keeping track of this kind of things.
</p>
<p>the 'background' parameter for the initialization function can be a
static pixel map, (in this case the space character is reserved for
specifying transparency), or can be left blank (then the pixel map is
constructed with 'margin' transparent pixels all around) or you may give a
list of 'viewports': rectangular holes you want to dig in the otherwise
transparent pixel map.
</p>
<p>use the initialization interactively and give 'debug=True' to see the
constructed xpm. you may save it in a file and view it with your favourite
graphics viewer. there are versions of emacs (e.g.: CVS Emacs on Mac OS X)
where you can view a buffer 'graphically' just by hitting C-c C-c.
