Hi,
I would suggest a more "flat" structure. For example, the "ClickToFocus"
option should be in the "root" section and not under
General->Focus->ClickToFocus (I assume there can only be one ClickToFocus
option anyway, one Focus sub-section and one General section).
A flat structure is also easier for other parsers/writers, such as a
configuration frontend.
Another suggestion is to extend the BorderlessWindows option, and make a
section for each window, as in:
<Window xclock>
ShowBorders No
Sticky Yes
</Window>
<Window ickle_main>
Sticky Yes
InitialState Minimized # Maximized, Normal, ...
</Window>
This requires a bit more code, but could be quite useful.
Regards / Martin
