Instead of editing conf.h you can use these commands to dynamically
add (and clear) the unmanaged window list.

now and not NetBSD-*-arm32. Changes include one or more of:
- Change MACHINE_ARCH == arm32 to also match arm
- Where ONLY_FOR_PLATFORM includes NetBSD-*-arm32, add NetBSD-*-arm
- Where BROKEN or worked around for arm gcc bugs, set USE_GCC3
The last may shake out a few more broken packages the next bulk build.
Changes:
1 - Fix line numbers for errors when using m4 preprocessor. Send thanks
to Josh Wilmes.
2 - Fix the way menu entries are selected with the keyboard. Now
when you type a letter, the pointer moves to the next entry
whose first letter is this letter, but does not activate it.
The new keyword IgnoreCaseInMenuSelection, can be used to
ignore case for this delection.
3 - New keyword : DontSave, Takes a window list as argument. All listed
windows won't have their characteristics saved for the session manager.
Patch from Matthias Baake
4 - Also from Matthias Baake. I let him speak :
With the new keywords BorderLeft, BorderRight, BorderBottom and BorderTop
(each of them is optional with a default value of 0 and takes a
nonnegative integer as argument) you can declare a border "off limits" for
f.move etc.. These borders act the same way as the real borders of the
screen when moving windows; you can use f.forcemove to override them.
5 - Sloppy Focus added with keyword "SloppyFocus" in configuration file
(DINH V. Hoa).
6 - the keyword "ClickToFocus" has been correctly implemented (DINH V. Hoa).
7 - the keyword "IgnoreModifier" has been added,
to use this feature, you have to add a line
"IgnoreModifier { lock m2 }" in the configuration file.
All bindings (buttons and keys) will ignore the modifiers
you specified. It is useful when you use caps locks or
num locks. You don't need IgnoreLockModifier any more with this option.
(DINH V. Hoa).
8 - New keyword : WindowBox : creates a new window called a box, where
all the client windows that match the windows list are opened in,
instead of the roor window. This is useful to group small windows
in the same box (xload for instance) :
WindowBox "xloadbox" "320x100+0-0" {
"xload"
}
9 - New function : f.fittocontent. Can be used only with window boxes.
The result is to have the box have the minimal size that contains
all its children windows.
10 - New keyword : WindowGeometries. Used to give a default geometry to some
clients :
WindowGeometries {
"Mozilla*" "1000x800+10+10"
"jpilot*" "800x600-0-0"
}
11 - New keyword : IconMenuDontShow. Don't show the name of these windows
in the TwmIcons menu.
And, as usual, a few bug fixes here and there.

metacity-setup is a graphical utility to configure the Metacity window
manager, allowing you to change themes, focus settings, the number of
workspaces, etc. It is much easier than having to use gconftool or
gconf-editor.
Package provided in pkgsrc-wip by marc@users.sf.net with some changes by me.
* Bug fixes
* All single letter variables are deprecated now; new variables:
$[w.id], $[w.name], $[w.iconname], $[w.class], $[w.resource],
$[desk.n], $[version.num], $[version.info], $[version.line],
$[desk.pagesx], $[desk.pagesy]
* The NoWarp menu position hint option works with root menus too.
* WindowListFunc is executed now within a window context, so
a prefix "WindowId $0" is not needed in its definition anymore
and it is advised to remove it in user configs.
* FvwmEvent now executes all window related events within a window
context, so PassId is not needed anymore, and all prefixes
"WindowId $0" may be removed in user event handlers.
libstdc++ in gcc3.
when defined, USE_GCC_SHLIB ensures that the correct rpath is passed
to the linker, and a full dependency on the compiler package is
registered.
packages which define USE_GCC_SHLIB should not include
mk/gcc.buildlink2.mk (or gcc{,3}/buildlink2.mk) as it is handled
automatically.
