Just compiled the latest version and set an alarm in evolution, which triggered. I then used the desktop button. And there
happened no crash.
I haven't used window maker for quite some time. I use metacity, because it has the nice feature of being able to switch between
windows of one particular application using a configurable keyboard shortcut, which I could not find in WindowMaker.
I can remember I also had problems with occasional crashes when using Mod-H to hide all windows of an application.
Hope that helps,
thomas
