[plug] xmessage window props

[Bernard]

Thanks, I've done what Simon's said, and it seems to have worked.
It'll probably lose it's settings next time this computer crashes
because I haven't put it in my .enlightenment/settings (every 50 or
so days when I load a dodgy winmodem kernel module it freezes). I
think I can just live with resetting it each time I sporadically
start X. 

Thanks again,

Bernard.
