Hello, all. To save space on your desktop, it is sometimes useful to do away with the title bar of some programs. We've indicated how to do this in icewm earlier: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=77522 Similarly, here is how to have an urxvt window without a title bar in pekwm. In pekwm's autoproperties file (located at ~/.pekwm), insert the following:
If you call a cli program with "rxvt -e", rxvt is not affected, and therefore will show with a titlebar, while the same cli program called with "urxvt -e" will not have a titlebar. If this sounds like splitting hairs... it is!  However, minute details sometimes make a big difference -- and help clear your mind!
Let's give credit to whom credit is due... This trick is adapted from: http://phollow.fr/2009/05/bashrun-un-lanceur-simple-et-efficace/ (Read on Aug. 29, 2012, at 16:10) Many thanks to the anonymous author!

Incidentally... I decided to use this configuration trick rather than the "-bl" parameter in the urrxvt calling script itself. Using the "-bl" parameter forbids the use of any input device in the console window. I've experienced it, and there are also a couple of reports on Linux forums about the strange behaviour of the "-bl" parameter in urxvt. "-bl" also makes the window sticky. So in practice, its use would be restricted to displaying a clock in text format or some similar type of permanent data on your screen.
