        Hint: it's under the Style command. Setting a window's style to
"Sticky" will cause it to be "stuck" (or "pinned", or whatever
terminology you like) when it's initially created. The style just
governs its initial state: you can still toggle it between stuck and
unstuck with the "Stick" command (a good thing to bind to one of the
titlebar buttons, and to have in a general Window-Ops menu).
