| DestroyFunc Thumbnail
| AddToFunc Thumbnail
| + I Raise
| + I SetEnv Icon-$[w.id] $[w.iconfile]
| + I ThisWindow (!Shaded Iconifiable !Iconic) PipeRead \
| "xwd -silent -id $[w.id] | convert -scale $[fvwm_icon_size] -frame 1x1 \
| -mattecolor black -quality 0 xwd:- png:$[FVWM_USERDIR]/icon.tmp.$[w.id].png \
| && echo WindowStyle IconOverride, Icon $[FVWM_USERDIR]/icon.tmp.$[w.id].png \
