	I dont think you do, you simply set the style from Enlightenments
drop down menu and then save the settings - every xmessage window should
have those attributes from then onwards

	I think..... I havent used E in a long time.

	List,

	I'm in the process of making lil' funky popups on my desktop to
	notify me of icq events, emails, etc. It displays the details by
	using xmessage, along the lines of:

	xmessage -xrm *.font:*-helvetica-*-*-*-*-14-* \
	         -xrm *.geometry:-0+0 \
	         -xrm *.title:"You have new mail" \
		 -xrm *.foreground:"$fgcolor" \
	         -xrm *.background:"$bgcolor" \
		 -buttons "" \
		 -timeout 5 \
		 $from re $subject

	Almost there - I want to make the popup box stay on top of other
	windows while it's up and also have no title bar. I'm using
	GNOME/Enlightenment and I can select Border Style -> Borderless and
	Set Stacking -> Above, but how do I do this from the command line? 

	TIA,

	Bernard.
