Well, you *could* have blocks as following....

#ifdef WIN32
    <do some win32 stuff to kill widgets>
#else
    <do some X Windows stuff to kill widgets>
#endif

and have something like -DWIN32 (for Windows platforms) on the compiler
command line...

1. how to XCreateWindow() with no window manager decorations?

Is it possible, from an XLib program, to tell the window manager not to
put any decorations around your top level window?

The Xt manual talks about a _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property, but I cant find any
information on using it in an XLib program.

I know how to do it from my .Xdefaults:  4Dwm*myprog.clientDecoration: none.

What I want to know is how to hardcode it, for a program whose whole purpose in
life is to play fullscreen videos.  The old version of this program used IrisGL's
noborders() function, but this is no longer an option.
