Actually ... :-)
I only say /that/ since my hi/lolight colours come out a shite shade of
green, when all my window borders are blue hues - but I've become used to
it.
On the HilightColors front, it's not actually a problem for me, since I
prefer a consistent look any way - all my windows use the same (well,
pretty well) decor. I think one has to be a little twisted to want
different window colours on different windows :-)
On that note - I've implemented a 'changing' toggle-size button by
defining two similar decors: each the same, bar the icon for the
toggle-size button (one's a toggle-big piccy, one's a toggle-back piccy).
my toggle-size func. sets the decor of the current window accordingly.
It works a treat, but I can't help feeling that there's an easier way to
do it. Any suggestions?

Font, f/g & b/g colour, box, etc. I think it comes down to being more of
an 'IconDecor' that IconStyle ... or even, just have then icon bits in a
Decor, and be able to create super-classes of Decor (i.e., Decor MyDecor
UseDecor MyWindowDecor, UseDecor MyIconDecor' ... and chaning a sub-decor
changes the parent). Or can we already do that?
